Why rosebay willowherb is a problem in Downpatrick
On Downpatrick properties, rosebay willowherb wind-blown seed colonises cleared ground, car park margins and railway land almost immediately after disturbance. In Downpatrick, Japanese knotweed and Himalayan balsam spread along the River Quoile and its tributaries, where floods and riverbank works carry rhizome fragments downstream. Verges and green spaces around Down Cathedral and Quoile Pondage, along with new housing on the edge of town towards Ardglass and Killough, are where we most often find established stands.
