Why horsetail is a problem in Tullamore
On Tullamore properties, horsetail roots reach two metres down, shrug off most garden weedkillers and push up through lawns, borders and block paving year after year. In Tullamore, Japanese knotweed and Himalayan balsam spread along the Grand Canal and its tributaries, where floods and riverbank works carry rhizome fragments downstream. Verges and green spaces around Charleville Castle and Clara Bog, along with new housing on the edge of town towards Clara and Kilbeggan, are where we most often find established stands.
