Bamboo tall but not invasive
Xref: kermit uk.rec.gardening:143512
Wyevale I find can be a bit on the expensive side, mind you all nurseries are on the expensive side when I go to them! I think it pays to have a look around, my guess is for a 2 metre bamboo £20-£25 is roughly the going rate down here in the SE! L "bnd777" wrote in message ... Just plant the clump forming bamboo in a large deep bottomless pot sunk in the ground ,,,,,,,,,it will stop any runners .......Wyevale nurseries have quite a reasonable range "Zizz" wrote in message ... "ged hickman" wrote in message ... I would like to plant bamboo as a feature in front of a 6ft high fence at the back of a border. Amongst my, perhaps unachievable, wishlists are; Readily available I don't want to pay the earth I'd like it two meters or so high I would like a non-invasive form Preferably pretty as well Any ideas or suggestion most welcome cheers Ged I've 2 phyllostachys nigras both currently about 6 feet tall an have had them planted in the ground against a fence for the past 2 years. If there are any worries about bamboo spreading then you can always put a barrier around it to prevent spread as bamboos aren't too deep rooting. L |
