Why ground elder is a problem in Dursley
On Dursley properties, ground elder brittle white rhizome regrows from every fragment, so digging alone usually spreads it further through borders and hedge lines. Dursley's former engineering works and the disturbed ground along Cam Brook and old mill leats have left the town with well-established knotweed colonies, aided by the disused Dursley branch railway line.
