Why ground ivy is a problem in Donegal
On Donegal properties, ground ivy creeping stems root at every node, forming mats through lawns and shady borders that mowing cannot shift. In Donegal, Japanese knotweed and Himalayan balsam spread along the River Eske and its tributaries, where floods and riverbank works carry rhizome fragments downstream. Verges and green spaces around Donegal Castle and Donegal Bay, along with new housing on the edge of town towards Laghey and Mountcharles, are where we most often find established stands.
