Why water primrose is a problem in Ashford
On Ashford properties, water primrose forms floating mats over ponds, lakes and slow drains, deoxygenating water and blocking flows. Around the town centre and the designer outlet, Ashford's mix of gardens, riverbanks, railway corridors and development plots gives invasive and persistent weeds plenty of disturbed ground to colonise, and infestations regularly cross property boundaries across Kent.
