Why rhododendron ponticum is a problem in Bangor
On Bangor properties, rhododendron ponticum forms dense evergreen thickets, shades out woodland ground flora and harbours Phytophthora pathogens that damage nearby trees. Bangor's old quarry railway lines and harbour developments along the Menai Strait left disturbed, damp ground where Japanese knotweed has spread through the Adnant valley and former slate transport routes near the city.
