Default Plant Bamboo in a barrel planter?

"Kentucky Barrels" wrote in message

I am new to bamboo. I would like to know if it is possible to
plant
it in a half whiskey barrel planter. It is 24 inches in
diameter at
the top, 21 inches in diameter at the bottom and 18 inches
deep. I
am thinking this would prevent it from spreading.


Only for awhile. Best to get barrier from a garden center or a
boo seller near you. Sources can be found at

scroll down about half way to see "Plant and Product Sources
USA".
