Gardeners have been warned to look out for rogue weeds which could undermine the structure of their homes after experts named and shamed Britain’s most destructive plants.
The gardening buffs behind online retailer BillyOh.com have researched and revealed the plants that can wreak the most havoc on land and property.
As well as damaging buildings and local habitats, these plants and weeds are also incredibly difficult to control.
Because they’re largely resistant to most forms of weed and plant killer, you have to take extra measures to destroy them.
And in some instances, because they’re so fast growing and hard to regulate, it’s actually illegal to plant them in the UK.
A spokesperson for BillyOh.com said: “For most people, thoughts of destructive, nuisance plants instantly conjures up of images of deep jungles and exotic forests abroad – but surprisingly, the UK is home to a fair few damaging flowers, shrubs and weeds too.
