Why you cannot afford to ignore Japanese Knotweed. The problem doesn’t just disappear.

No, but here’s a great example of Japanese Knotweed exploiting weaknesses in a concrete driveway. Knotweed can push up through cracks, small holes and thinly spread concrete if not properly controlled. Left unchecked this plant has spread along a joining line of concrete driveway.

Identifying Japanese Knotweed in the winter.

The plant will appear dead with brown woody canes and telltale zigzag stems. They often have wispy ends where the flowers were. This is because the Japanese Knotweed above the ground dies back and takes its nutrients down to the rhizome (root) system. As a result, the knotweed is ready to produce fresh growth in the spring.

Last Chance for Japanese Knotweed spraying.

dan — Wed, 07 Nov 2018 15:29:53 +0000

As the colder weather sets in, the Japanese Knotweed draws its nutrients back down into the roots. The leaves turn brown, fall to the ground and the stems also begin to brown.

Hurry, whilst there is still some green on the leaves (as shown in this picture) we can still treat this invasive plant and prepare the plant for next years growth.

So don’t delay order your Japanese Knotweed survey now and we will do our best to start the treatment straightaway.
