Why marestail is a problem in Diss
On Diss properties, marestail deep rhizome network makes it one of the hardest weeds to shift from gardens, allotments and new-build plots. Around the Mere and the town centre, Diss's mix of gardens, riverbanks, railway corridors and development plots gives invasive and persistent weeds plenty of disturbed ground to colonise, and infestations regularly cross property boundaries across Norfolk.
