If true, presence of T. urticae would compel an extension of the view of tolerant phytoremediating species such as willow; not only do species such as willow find reduced competition from other plant species in these difficult environments but may also benefit, in principle, from the advantage of reduced biotic challenge.
Image: EH Shepard/PA One hundred years after its first publication, Kenneth Grahame's Wind in the Willows finds itself allotted to the rather patronising status of "children's classic".
Vegetation grows primarily in the moister areas, with cottonwoods, tamarisks, and willows found along riverbanks.

The concerts are held in front of the memorial to Chopin, who is depicted sitting under a type of willow tree found in his native Mazowia.
In March, more than 250 live larvae of the Asian longhorn beetle, which can kill oak and willows, were found in trees in Kent.
As Ms. Kelly began writing "Return to the Willows," she found one of the characters taking over the story — specifically, the one who represents the sort of disregard for convention that Grahame feared but schoolchildren adore.
Sulaiman ([2006]) found willow and poplar growth was more strongly influenced by stem diameter than planting depth (6 trees of each genus studied).
Willow had actually found the pregnancy stick in her bedroom.
I was six years old, stepping out the back door to see the vast fluttering presence of the willow only to find shocking emptiness.
