We bought a pot of bamboo back last year, potted it on to the garden a few months later, at the moment it is like something out of the Triffids (for those of you who know that film).
Question, can this be cut back, if so to what level and what time of year.
:-/ :-/ :-/ :-/

Make a bamboo tent if your going to the Welsh meet - if the site floods turn it upside down and use it as a boat-
and it's green so no carbon offset !!!

We've got one of these weeping willow type trees, and with the global climate change, there is no definate winter, so the **** thing just keeps growing. Several times we have scalped it to within an inch of its life, but it regards this as a challange and grows even faster. I recon a flamethrower is next :-X
