Posting web pages is fairly easy once you get the hang of it. You must first
have an ISP (mine is Verizon) which gives you personal web space. The you
need an editing tool -- Mozilla's Composer is good. And then you need
SmartFTP for uploading and managing.

That photo was not scanned, by the way, but shot with my digital camera.

Japanese Knotweed can become a major problem if the eradication process is
not sustained~~ even though I have known it to take four years with
Roundup[The best]. Leave it untroubled and your only solution is to move
house!!
With us in SW England [Cornwall] it has become such a problem that the
authorities have undertaken the spraying and have been many years in the
process. It is also prohibited to dig up and disperse any parts of the
plant. Even its ashes seem to have the ability to Phoenix!!
I am relieved that others knew how to make a picture available. I have a
scanner but beyond that I'm lost.
Best Wishes Brian 'flayb' to respond.

your image file:

You need to put your photo on your web server, and link from it
there.

Found it:

Now that I can see the image, it is defintely Japanese knotweed,
Polygonum
cuspidatum. This is not an annual but a perennial weed that can become
shrubby in time. Pulling is not the answer - you can actually increase
its
spread by inadvertantly leaving portions of the root rhizomes either
above
or underground. This is a plant that calls for and responds to herbicide
applications, typically repeat applications. As mentioned previously,
control is not easy, but you don't appear to have a huge
problem.....yet.
