[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It spreads like wildfire. I have never seen a plant like this before.
Where I grew up bamboo does not grow, so it was always exotic to me.
Well no more, our neighbor has it.  He had 2 gardeners remove it completely, they whacked it away... and two weeks later;  I cannot see his house anymore.  The bamboo is over 15 feet tall and so thick and strong, it is insane.  
Of course, it is coming over the fence.

What did you say kills it??

Ha! I am that poster. Our neighbor's bamboo has since expanded. The house has a new owner who is not aware of what this plant can do.   It almost has reached the second story windows.
Meanwhile, on our side of the fence:  shoots are popping up like the stems of trees on our lawn.  It is so strong.  
We've tried the roundup....  We are looking at a trench now.

But how to dig that trench in hard clay soil??

Also, I read somewhere that a grass lawn is supposed to contain it, but that does not seem to be the case.  Anyone with advice??[/quote]
