    Japanese Knotweed has arrived here in Canada. It is unwanted and is considered a invasive species. Good luck with the recovery program.

    That is one tough plant to eradicate. Kudos to them for doing it.

    That is something I had never heard of before so I looked it up. Sounds like it's a good thing to get rid of.

    That must have been a big job to take that all out.

    We have a big problem with it here in parts of Toronto and volunteers go out into the ravines to try to gather and destroy it!

    I've never heard of Japanese knotweed. I had to look it up to see what it was.

    That's a lot of mulch! A lot of recycling in the previous post, too!!!

    I must be lucky. I've never heard of the stuff unless we call it something else around here.

    Never heard of that particular invasive species and I’m surprised I haven’t, both Oregon and Florida seem to be havens for lots of plants that shouldn’t be here.

    I believe this is very difficult to get rid of, but I'm pleased they are trying.

    All the best Jan
