Bamboo In The UK

One of the most useful plants on earth, bamboo is actually a grass of the Poaceae family, sub family Bambusoideae and it has been used for centuries across different cultures firstly in Asia before being exported worldwide.

Incredibly sturdy and resilient it has been used for housing and buildings, food, furniture, clothes and textiles to name just a few of its uses.

First introduced to the UK in the 1820’s as an exotic ornamental bamboo quickly gained great popularity in gardens and landscapes across the British Isles and as it did began to escape it’s designated boundaries.

One of the fastest growing plants on the planet and with now over 1600 documented varieties some able to create actual forests, bamboo has become a part of British horticulture and history and is still popular today.

Issues With Bamboo

As bamboo began to grow in popularity  so did it’s spread as it’s sturdy and resilient nature allowed it to escape it’s boundaries and take root in surrounding areas and properties.

With over 1600 now documented varieties bamboo can still be broadly sub-categorised into two distinct types:

Running Bamboo

Generally the more troublesome as it’s strong rhizome network ( roots ) can run far from the original plant with the shoots able to pop up and exploit weaknesses in structures such as walls, driveways and fences, even foundations which can cause potential legal issues with neighbours.

Clumping Bamboo.

Does not tend to be as problematic as it’s shorter root network tends to turn upwards vertically and create small clumps close to the host plant. These can easily be found and removed if necessary.

Bamboo Treatment & Removal Methods

Methods for treatment and removal include :

Manual Removal  – Removal of the plant and roots by hand or gardening tools.

Mechanical Excavation – Normally for larger industrial scale commercial removals.

Physical Barriers  – Placed around the rhizomes to keep them from spreading.

Herbicides / Chemical Treatments – With safe and targeted application.

Ongoing Observation

Further monitoring of the affected area is imperative as re-growth can occur if even the slightest root fragments are left behind.
