Since we only have the female plant in the UK any Japanese Knotweed seeds are hybrids, usually a cross with Russian Vine or Giant Knotweed, both of the
Fallopia species. The good news is these produce a ‘mule effect’ sterile or short lived offspring. So if you need clear advice that will help you put Japanese Knotweed into perspective give Knotweed Doctor a call 0800 020 9171

Giant Knotweed removal

Is this Knotweed a giant of a problem? Similarly Japanese Knotweed’s giant cousin can cause problems to properties. It has the same potential to cause damage and devalue land. How can you tell the difference? Firstly, it’s much taller and can grow to 4m. Also, the leaves are much larger, they tend to be rounder with ruffled edges and a slightly deeper green. The good news, because of the larger leaf size we have had great results with our Management Plans and herbicide treatments. Finally, root barriers, herbicide plans and excavations are also successful.

Warning: Don’t ignore Japanese Knotweed

Why you cannot afford to ignore Japanese Knotweed. The problem doesn’t just disappear. Instead once this plant has drawn the nutrients from the ground and stored enough energy in its rhizome (root system) beware! This invasive weed will now begin an active phase. Because if not correctly managed Japanese Knotweed really can take over your garden. Act now contact our Chester Japanese Knotweed experts.

Has the Japanese Knotweed growing season begun already?

japanese-knotweed-buds
Japanese Knotweed doesn’t follow our British seasons. Like Knotweed Doctor’s Japanese Knotweed Removal Warrington office discovered on this site. As you can see from this picture fresh shoots have already started to sprout. When the temperature warms up the Knotweed plant sends up new shoots. It may be January, the heart of our winter season in the North West but the warmer temperatures in the city centre have triggered the tell-tale pinkish/purple buds of new knotweed growth.
