Why New Zealand pigmyweed is a problem in Cobh
On Cobh properties, New Zealand pigmyweed tiny fragments regrow into dense mats on pond margins and damp ground, and it spreads on footwear, tyres and machinery. In Cobh, Japanese knotweed and Himalayan balsam spread along the Cork Harbour and its tributaries, where floods and riverbank works carry rhizome fragments downstream. Verges and green spaces around Spike Island and St Colman's Cathedral, along with new housing on the edge of town towards Carrigtwohill and Midleton, are where we most often find established stands.
