    Why water primrose is a problem in Tallaght

    On Tallaght properties, water primrose forms floating mats over ponds, lakes and slow drains, deoxygenating water and blocking flows. In Tallaght, Japanese knotweed and Himalayan balsam spread along the River Dodder and its tributaries, where floods and riverbank works carry rhizome fragments downstream. Verges and green spaces around Sean Walsh Park and Dublin Mountains, along with new housing on the edge of town towards Firhouse and Jobstown, are where we most often find established stands.
