    Went for a walk from Cleveland Dam to Ambleside Park along the Capilano/Pacific Trail today.

    The knotweed has the leaf shape of P. x bohemicum. It appears this is the usual one in this region, quite a bit more frequent than either parent.

    Oh J.K., an invasive species ... the hillside was covered with it.
    Thanks to you both
