Why ivy is a problem in Glastonbury
On Glastonbury properties, ivy adventitious roots work into mortar, render and roof verges, and heavy growth adds wind load to walls, fences and mature trees. Glastonbury's low-lying Somerset Levels, criss-crossed by disturbed drainage rhynes and old peat diggings, have provided ideal damp conditions for knotweed to spread across the town's outskirts.
