Why rhododendron ponticum is a problem in Bray
On Bray properties, rhododendron ponticum forms dense evergreen thickets, shades out woodland ground flora and harbours Phytophthora pathogens that damage nearby trees. In Bray, Japanese knotweed and Himalayan balsam spread along the River Dargle and its tributaries, where floods and riverbank works carry rhizome fragments downstream. Verges and green spaces around Bray Head and Killruddery, along with new housing on the edge of town towards Greystones and Enniskerry, are where we most often find established stands.
