History Of Bamboo In The UK

First imported from Asia in the 19th century bamboo has quickly become a popular addition to gardens and landscapes throughout the UK.

With it’s varieties numbering well over a thousand it has actually been called the fastest growing plant in the world ( although technically it is a member of the grass family.)

Incredibly sturdy and resilient it can thrive in environments and different climates all over the world.

Problems With Bamboo

Although a very popular and good looking plant problems start to arise with bamboo because of it’s powerful root structure ( rhizome network ) that can spread far from the host plant and penetrate surrounding areas and neighbouring properties.

If left unchecked these roots can push up through most things in it’s way, including patios, drives, walls and even penetrate houses in some instances.

With well over a thousand documented varieties of bamboo they can be generally categorised into two types based on the way they spread and the potential for damage.

 Running Bamboos generally the more problematic and destructive with their tendency to “run” far from the original plant and penetrate surrounding areas.

Clumping Bamboos generally not as troublesome with their short root structure staying close to the host plant and forming easily identifiable “clumps.”

Common methods for the treatment and removal of bamboo include:

Physical Bamboo Removal  – the plant can be pulled up by hand along with the roots. Tools can also be used.
