Bamboo

Bamboo has long been an attractive addition to the UK landscape since it’s introduction with the first variety believed to have been imported from Japan.

Fast growing, sturdy and versatile it has been used in all types of ornamental domestic and commercial settings as there are different varieties available in all sizes to fit any space.

With distinctive, attractive looking canes and evergreen foliage Bamboo has proved popular all over the planet and been exported throughout the world.

What Are The Problems With Bamboo ?

Although bamboo is often desired because of it’s hardy, durable and quick growing nature, it is exactly these desirable qualities that can cause it to be a problem if left unchecked.

Often planted as an evergreen screen to give privacy to a property particularly along boundaries this does mean that bamboo does not have to spread far to encroach onto a neighbouring property and as it is an incredibly quick and aggressive spreading plant this can often cause an issue.

Much like Japanese Knotweed bamboo can penetrate concrete such as in patios and drives and can also cause a problem for local eco systems by outcompeting native plant species.

Bamboo Removal 

Although discovering on your property can initially be disconcerting, with proper treatment and removal the problem need not become a major issue.

As with all invasive weed treatment and removal, methods may vary depending on the size and scope of original infestation.

Common treatments can include :

Manual Strimming Cutting and Pruning : Cutting and removing the canes and removing the roots.

Mechanical Digging Out/Excavation : For larger bamboo growths.

Physical Barrier Installation : To keep the bamboo inside a designated area.

Chemical Control / Herbicides : Targeted and safely applied.

Continued Monitoring

It is important to take care to ensure that every bit of rhizome is removed from the soil when the bamboo is taken out. Growth can re-start from the tiniest bit of root structure that has been left behind so ongoing monitoring is crucial.
