Why yarrow is a problem in Portlaoise
On Portlaoise properties, yarrow drought-tolerant mats spread through lawns and amenity grass, spoiling fine turf and outcompeting grass in dry summers. In Portlaoise, Japanese knotweed and Himalayan balsam spread along the River Triogue and its tributaries, where floods and riverbank works carry rhizome fragments downstream. Verges and green spaces around Rock of Dunamase and Slieve Bloom foothills, along with new housing on the edge of town towards Mountmellick and Abbeyleix, are where we most often find established stands.
