Why montbretia is a problem in Sudbury
On Sudbury properties, montbretia corm chains multiply underground and spread along verges, hedgebanks and stream sides, excluding native plants. Sudbury sits on the River Stour, whose water meadows and former silk-weaving mill sites have given the town persistent knotweed infestations, particularly around the old wharf area near Ballingdon Bridge.
