SUMMARY:Japanese Knotweed Pull at Hammond Pond
DESCRIPTION:Japanese Knotweed is a bamboo-like invader from Asia that can c
 reate dense 8’ tall single-species stands. It is a tough adversary\, not
  because it’s spiny or strong or even particularly hard to pull. But any
  small root fragments left behind spring back to life the following year.
   A recently approved biological control is expected to somewhat limit th
 e growth but will not eliminate it.  For now we will continue with contro
 lling it manually.  Persistence pays with this species\, and eradication 
 is possible\, but it takes several years to truly finish the job we've sta
 rted along Hammond Pond. Bring pitchforks\, garden spades\, and hand prune
 rs\, if you have them\, and wear long sleeves\, long pants and closed shoe
 s.\n\nLeaders are Mark Hooker and Katherine Howard\, 617-721-2571.
