Why yarrow is a problem in Irvine
On Irvine properties, yarrow drought-tolerant mats spread through lawns and amenity grass, spoiling fine turf and outcompeting grass in dry summers. Irvine sits in Ayrshire, 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.
