    Why Himalayan balsam is a problem in Newark-on-Trent

    On Newark-on-Trent properties, Himalayan balsam fires seed up to seven metres, smothers native bankside vegetation and leaves bare soil that erodes into watercourses each winter. Newark-on-Trent's riverside wharves and former maltings along the River Trent and Fossdyke navigation created disturbed, fertile banks where Japanese knotweed has spread near the castle grounds and old railway sidings.
