Go with the Yellow Vivax. It is totally cool looking and down south
where you are it will probably be 60 feet tall yellow waxy culms with
green pin stipes.

Hi everyone, I'm new to the group and am looking for advice.

I live in Los Angeles and my property is adjacent (unfortunately) to a
4-story apartment building nearing completion.

My back fence and the back fence of the building share a property
line, and instead of blue sky I now have balconies looking down into
my backyeard/pool area. I'm looking for some privacy or coverage, and
someone had suggested timber bamboo.

I don't know anything about timber bamboo, and my major questions are,
how high can it grow, and is its coverage just vertical, or will it
have any density horizontally?

Are there pros or cons to timber bamboo in anyone's experience?
Thanks for any advice/insight/help that anyone can offer.
