Why ground elder is a problem in Tralee
On Tralee properties, ground elder brittle white rhizome regrows from every fragment, so digging alone usually spreads it further through borders and hedge lines. In Tralee, Japanese knotweed and Himalayan balsam spread along the Lee River and its tributaries, where floods and riverbank works carry rhizome fragments downstream. Verges and green spaces around Tralee Bay and Blennerville Windmill, along with new housing on the edge of town towards Blennerville and Ardfert, are where we most often find established stands.
