History of Bamboo
Used in Asian cultures for a variety of purposes for thousands of years this incredible plant is actually a grass belonging to the Poaceae family and was first brought to the UK in the 1800’s.
With now approximately between 1400 and 1600 different documented varieties bamboo has thrived in all kinds of climates across the globe with some more suited to temperate climates and some more suited to warmer conditions.
In the UK it quickly flourished as a popular, sturdy and good looking ornamental plant seen in gardens throughout Britain.
Bamboo Problems
Sometimes labelled the “quickest growing plant in the world” some varieties of bamboo can grow up to 91 cm per day and create actual forests with the most popular being found in Asia.
In the UK it can be incredibly invasive if allowed to extend beyond its boundaries and it’s aggressively spreading root network can easily penetrate surrounding areas and properties where it can push up through patios, driveways and paving stones, even the foundations of your house.
It can also outcompete native plant species creating creating problems for the local eco-system.
With the many different documented varieties of bamboo they still generally fall into two broad categories regards their spread.
Clumping Varieties of Bamboo – Generally not very invasive and not spreading far from the original plant they form in easily noticeable clumps close by.
Running Varieties of Bamboo – These varieties are mostly the more problematic as their strong and aggressive rhizomes ( roots ) can run far from the host plant and invade surrounding areas and properties.
Treatment & Removal of Bamboo
Treatment and removal methods include :
Manual Removal of Bamboo – The plant can be pulled up manually by hand making sure to also get all the roots.
Mechanical Excavation – For larger infestations, often on commercial sites but also for larger domestic ones.
Physical Root Barriers – Rhizome barriers can be used to keep the roots within their boundaries.
Chemical Treatments – Herbicides can be used on most varieties of bamboo with controlled application.
Further Monitoring
Ensure the infected area is monitored moving forward to ensure no further re-growth.
