Japanese Knotweed is a tall perennial plant, dying back in winter and re-emerging in spring. The shoots start to emerge in late March to early April, with an appearance of asparagus and are red-green in colour. As it grows through the summer, the red colour turns into red speckles on an otherwise green stem and at full height it can reach up to 3m.

Japanese Knotweed was widespread on our site and through careful planning and understanding of the wider contamination issues you delivered a commercially sensitive and effective solution. Many thanks for a job well done.”
