Why rhododendron ponticum is a problem in Solihull
On Solihull properties, rhododendron ponticum forms dense evergreen thickets, shades out woodland ground flora and harbours Phytophthora pathogens that damage nearby trees. Solihull's suburban development around the River Blythe and Cole has disturbed former farmland, allowing knotweed to spread along railway embankments near the town's historic core and Tudor Grange Park.
