What is Japanese Knotweed?

Japanese Knotweed, scientifically known as Fallopia japonica, is an invasive plant species that poses a significant threat to ecosystems and properties.

Its rapid growth and extensive rhizome system make it challenging to control, requiring effective herbicide treatments and long-term management plans.

Japanese Knotweed is characterised by its bamboo-like stems, heart-shaped green leaves, and creamy white flowers. This plant can grow up to 10 cm a day, quickly forming dense thickets that outcompete native vegetation.

Fallopia japonica's deep and interconnected root system allows it to spread rapidly, regrowing from even small stem fragments.

Due to its aggressive nature, infestations of Japanese Knotweed can cause structural damage to buildings and hinder the growth of native plants.

How Does Japanese Knotweed Spread?

Japanese Knotweed spreads rapidly through its rhizome system, allowing it to invade neighbouring properties and outcompete native plant species. 

Conducting a Japanese Knotweed survey is essential to identify the extent of infestation and prevent further spread.

The rhizome propagation of Japanese Knotweed is a significant factor contributing to its aggressive spread. 

These underground stems can extend several metres from the main plant, producing new shoots that quickly establish themselves. 

The proximity of neighbouring properties provides an easy pathway for the plant to encroach upon new areas. As Japanese Knotweed forms dense thickets, it shades out native vegetation and disrupts the natural ecological balance.

Why is Japanese Knotweed a Problem?

Japanese Knotweed is considered a problem due to its classification as an invasive species under the Environmental Protection Act. 

Its aggressive growth displaces native vegetation, damages infrastructure, and poses legal liabilities for property owners dealing with Japanese Knotweed infestations.

The rampant spread of Japanese Knotweed can lead to structural issues in buildings and retaining walls, significantly reducing property values.

This invasive plant can outcompete native flora, disrupting local ecosystems and diminishing biodiversity.

In addition, the presence of Japanese Knotweed can make obtaining insurance or selling affected properties difficult, creating financial burdens for homeowners and businesses.
