I’m UK based for what it’s worth
Yes, very. It’ll take over and shade out trees if you let it.
Thanks, I suppose what I’m asking is, should it be treated in the same way as Japanese Knotweed and Himalayan Balsam? I do attack the stuff in my own garden but should we be doing the same in parks?

Oops, I guess I should get rid of that. I’ve had one growing up my chicken coop the last few years, but I always thought it was just a morning glory. It has been spreading a bit.
I heard RED Gardens on YouTube complain a lot about it and they’re based in Ireland. So it’s hard to get rid of.
It’s horrible stuff, takes a lot of time to rip out. I’m just making sure I get it out of my garden before it blossoms but my neighbours aren’t gardeners and it comes through the fences so I’m fighting a losing battle there!
I was curious about whether we should tackle it in the wild mostly
Invasive? Not sure if call it that but it’s a bastard and hard to get rid of entirely if you don’t keep on top of it
It’s the most often complained about weed in our garden because it can’t be composted, it will happily just replant itself in your compost pile.
