    Why yarrow is a problem in Sligo

    On Sligo properties, yarrow drought-tolerant mats spread through lawns and amenity grass, spoiling fine turf and outcompeting grass in dry summers. In Sligo, Japanese knotweed and Himalayan balsam spread along the Garavogue River and its tributaries, where floods and riverbank works carry rhizome fragments downstream. Verges and green spaces around Benbulben and Lough Gill, along with new housing on the edge of town towards Strandhill and Rosses Point, are where we most often find established stands.
