Why rhododendron ponticum is a problem in Tonyrefail
On Tonyrefail properties, rhododendron ponticum forms dense evergreen thickets, shades out woodland ground flora and harbours Phytophthora pathogens that damage nearby trees. Tonyrefail sits between the Rhondda and Llantrisant, where new estates on old farm and colliery land often turn up knotweed.
