Japanese knotweed is thriving this summer, with growth rates reaching up to 10 centimeters per day. Prolonged warm weather has created ideal growing conditions, especially in late August and early September, its peak flowering season. The invasive plant has roots that can extend up to 3 meters deep and can cause significant damage if left unchecked. Key indicators for homeowners include white to cream-colored flowers, heart-shaped leaves, and hollow, bamboo-like stems. Acting quickly during the summer is crucial to prevent infestations and property value loss.
