Why horsetail is a problem in Clonmel
On Clonmel 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 Clonmel, Japanese knotweed and Himalayan balsam spread along the River Suir and its tributaries, where floods and riverbank works carry rhizome fragments downstream. Verges and green spaces around Gashouse Bridge and Comeragh foothills, along with new housing on the edge of town towards Kilsheelan and Ardfinnan, are where we most often find established stands.
