[quote=Anonymous]Huge deal, hence why it's illegal now to plant it pretty much everywhere in Mid-Atlantic. The rhizomes go down 20 inches and then shoot up, damaging foundations and pipes. It can break galvanized metal. There have been several lawsuits regarding bamboo - see one below. We got rid of ours, coming from a neighbor 4 houses away, by getting a backhoe in the winter, excavating deep enough and installing barriers. Budget accordingly. https://sgrlaw.com/articles/much-legal-ado-about-running-bamboo-on-shelter-island-were-kings-liable-to-sultans-for-nuisance-trespass-negligence/ https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10457923/How-neighbours-bamboo-caused-100k-damage-inside-home-shoots-burst-walls.html[/quote]
