Why ivy is a problem in Maidstone
On Maidstone properties, ivy adventitious roots work into mortar, render and roof verges, and heavy growth adds wind load to walls, fences and mature trees. Maidstone's riverside along the Medway, with disturbed wharves from its former paper and brewing industries, has given knotweed a strong presence, spreading further via old railway embankments through the town.
