I think this stuff is starting to put in an appearance very locally to me - a particular problem as it's bankside within walking distance of the house, and I've two young lads who adore being there..... You'll notice I said 'I think'..... and that's the problem - I'm not at all sure and really do not want to take chances with this stuff, yet equally do not want to lose access to a large area of riverbank if the plants I'm seeing beginning to emerge are simply similar in appearance, yet safe to be around. I've done the usual trolling through Google etc, but much of what I'm seeing online is very ambiguous, and there seem to be more than a few plants that appear to be quite similar in appearance until they start gettiung taller than I am... Does anyone have a simple, foolproof way to identify Giant Hogweed, and set it clearly apart from other similar plants, or even an online link that does a particularly good job of it, perhaps comparing similar plants side by side to show the similarities and differences? Thanks.
