Japanese knotweed destroys walls and asphalt. Lublin begins invasion fight
Japanese knotweed, or Reynoutria japonica, is one of Europe's most invasive plants — it reaches 2–3 metres in height and destroys walls and concrete surfaces. A rhizome fragment weighing just 0.7 g and 1 cm long is enough for the plant to take over an area. In Poland its cultivation is banned and introducing it to the environment carries heavy penalties. Lublin became one of Poland's first cities to launch a program of systematic control against this species.
