    Why rosebay willowherb is a problem in Shrewsbury

    On Shrewsbury properties, rosebay willowherb wind-blown seed colonises cleared ground, car park margins and railway land almost immediately after disturbance. Shrewsbury sits in Shropshire, where river corridors, railway embankments and post-industrial ground give invasive weeds like Japanese knotweed plenty of disturbed soil to colonise. Older housing with long gardens and vacant plots around the town see regular outbreaks, and infestations commonly spread along watercourses and disused rail lines into neighbouring streets.
