Japanese knotweed can play havoc in your garden during the summer months; it has similar traits to bamboo and can grow over seven feet tall. But when it comes to winter, the Fallopia Japonica, or Japanese knotweed, seems to die off. The canes lose their leaves and turn brown. Over the winter the canes will slowly decompose and the remains of the plant will litter the ground. The decomposing remains of Japanese knotweed on the ground will stop other plants from growing on that patch of soil. This plant is truly nasty, but don’t be fooled by its decomposing state. This is the perfect time to go about removing this weed, as the plant is in fact not dead but in a dormant state. It will be back bigger and better with new shoots starting again in spring.    Read More
