Why stinging nettles is a problem in Penzance
On Penzance properties, stinging nettles colonise nutrient-rich and disturbed ground, making verges, play areas and yard margins unusable within a season. Penzance's Victorian harbourside and former railway terminus sidings have disturbed the coastal ground where knotweed now spreads along the Penlee headland and into nearby subtropical garden estates.
