Why suspected knotweed is a problem in Devizes
On Devizes properties, suspected knotweed bindweed, houttuynia, dogwood, russian vine and bamboo are all mistaken for knotweed, which triggers unnecessary panic during a sale. Devizes' position on the Kennet and Avon Canal, with its famous flight of 29 locks, has left disturbed towpath verges where knotweed spreads through former wharf sites and canal-side warehouses.
