Is the uk.rec.gardening silly season over yet???
Hello D.B.
Where abouts are you I would love a clump of that bamboo I am in Cornwall ........................Leslie "Delivery Boy" wrote in message ... I have a clump of bamboo which is twenty feet tall, width is 4 feet by 8 feet. It was grown to provide shadow over a lily and fish pond. It has performed very well. However, keeping it from spreading has always been a problem. This did not matter a great deal because I had a field on three sides, the horses and cows did a great job in keeping it cropped. All good things come to an end and a new housing development is about to start in the afore said field. The survey team drew my attention to 8 root runs each putting up from 5 to 9 clumps of well cropped bamboo shoots. This according to the team leader is no problem because they will be taking off about 4 to 5 feet of soil. My problem is this. I will have to prevent further wanderings in the future. I'm sure not many of the new owners will share my enthusiasm for bamboo. What effective measures can I take, which will not harm my bamboo and be low in maintenance? Anyone any experience? Regards, DG |
