Why rhododendron ponticum is a problem in Slough
On Slough properties, rhododendron ponticum forms dense evergreen thickets, shades out woodland ground flora and harbours Phytophthora pathogens that damage nearby trees. Slough's Trading Estate, built on former disturbed brickfield and clay-pit land, gave Japanese knotweed extensive brownfield ground to colonise, with further spread along the old Grand Union Canal branch.
