Found in a public park area next to a car park. Doesn’t look intentional and does look like Japanese knotweed – am I wrong or do I need to report this?

It’s Japanese knotweed.
If you can/need to report it, depends on your location.
Yes I’m going to give it a go, definitely invasive here. Thanks for the quick confirmation
It is…..🫣
Glyphosate controls it surprisingly well.
Dont start/try chopping out the rhizomes.Also then,disposal becomes a specialist affair too.
It’s already spreading by root from the looks of it, which means it’s too late to dig it out. This needs an herbicide eradication plan.
My condolences
Is it in a boxwood hedge?
Yes 😫
It depends on what you think it is. I think you’d be safe saying it’s not an enchilada.
Supposedly the shoots are delicious
Those GOTDAYUM plants are of the devil!!! Had one where the roots going under a porch.
Yes, that’s a parking lot. They can pop up just about anywhere, and are *very* invasive.
