Hi

I'd like to get some Japanese Knotweed as an ornamental plant for the
garden.

I know people have run into difficulties if they let it get out of
control, so to forestall any problems I'd plan to grow it in a large pot,
or possibly a raised bed.

Besides making sure it doesn't set seed and pruning regularly to keep it
in check, are there any other gotchas to bear in mind?

Cheers

Whaaaaaaaat! It's not April the first is it? Or do you live on the
Isle of Wight?

Gotcha - in effect your proposal is illegal.

And bloody stupid!

Damn, I swore!
