Now i can't imagine they would be a big problem, are they??

This is the specific link:

We have quite a lot in places, it appears to have a good year in terms of growth (perhaps not for river); we've thinned it out in places, as it can really clog things up.

Some pics to help (not mine):


Early season it's just green weed, as said previously.


Then spring/summer it gets longer and begins to flower.


It can get quite dense.


Close up.
