Why montbretia is a problem in Swansea
On Swansea properties, montbretia corm chains multiply underground and spread along verges, hedgebanks and stream sides, excluding native plants. Swansea's industrial past around the Lower Swansea Valley's former copperworks left extensively disturbed, contaminated land where knotweed has thrived, spreading further along the River Tawe's banks.
