Did you know there are types of bamboo that DON'T spread ?

More on that at the end of this page.  First let's talk about "Damn-Boo "

AGGRESSIVE !!   INVASIVE!!!!      TAKES OVER!!

In order for bamboo to become a nuisance it is necessary that it be regularly and consistently neglected over a number of years.  

In this state, it not only fails to acheive its potential as an almost spiritual space, but it also becomes an attractive host to:

  • accumulations of waste and refuse
  • vermin and varmits
  • grackles
  • wasps 
  • cockroaches
  • other unwanted visitors

In many cases local city waste disposal facilities won't accept bamboo material.

Dead and dying material which is not removed or mulched contributes to mold and mildew. 

Branches and protruding staubs present a real hazard to those who would try to enjoy the depths of a grove.

Untended grove edges may violate city ordinances or threaten good neighbor relations.

When a grove is properly maintained it is never again necessary to remove dead material, or fight through a jungle of growth.  Mature culms are harvested as a sustainable resource.   Selective thinning takes places during shooting time.

The time for neglect is over. 

Bamboo Specialists can help a grove reach its greatest potential or can remove the problem

entirely,... permanently.

Clumping bamboos send their new shoots up right next it's neighbor.  Running bamboos may put up a new shoot 10 or 12 ft from where the last one appeared.   Clumpers stay in one spot, their base growing wider, slowly over the years.

There are many clumpers that make fine selections as plants to provide visual screen, sound barriers, and aesthetic appeal.
