Why rhododendron ponticum is a problem in Great Yarmouth
On Great Yarmouth properties, rhododendron ponticum forms dense evergreen thickets, shades out woodland ground flora and harbours Phytophthora pathogens that damage nearby trees. Great Yarmouth's port and former herring industry left extensive disturbed land along the River Yare and Breydon Water, where knotweed spreads readily via old rail sidings and reclaimed marshland.
