Bamboo In The UK

Bamboo has been used by different cultures for centuries for a whole variety of things, from use in landscaping as fencing and borders, to decoration as flooring and furniture.

It is one of the most diverse plants on the planet and is known and used world wide.

First brought to the UK from Asia in the 1800’s as an ornamental plant primarily to be used in garden settings most of the over 1400 + documented varieties are evergreen perennials and it is actually a member of the subfamily Bambusoideae of the grass family Poaceae.

Problems With Bamboo

An incredibly sturdy and resilient plant able to survive in conditions that native plant species cannot, bamboo is an incredibly quick grower and spreader and is generally acknowledged as the fastest growing plant on earth, with some varieties capable of growing up to 35 inches per day and the tallest variety being able to grow up to 30 metres in height.

This has made it a popular option historically to populate a garden or landscape as it’s good looking canes can quickly populate an area and also provide an additional level of privacy.

However, if left unchecked to spread beyond it’s boundaries bamboo can cause significant structural damage to surrounding areas bringing problems with the owners of neighbouring properties and possible legal issues as it can aggressively push through cracks in most things blocking it’s spread such as bricks, driveways, patios and walls.

Bamboo’s over 1400 differently documented varieties can be broadly divided into two categories.

Running Bamboo – Generally the more problematic as it’s aggressively spreading rhizome network ( root structure ) likes to run and extend itself far from it’s boundaries if it can.

Clumping Bamboo – Generally not as troublesome as it’s short root structure does not tend to spread too far from the host plant as the bamboo forms easily identifiable clumps near to the original.

Bamboo Treatment & Removal

Common methods of bamboo removal include

Manual Removal  – Pulling up or digging out the roots of the plant manually.

Excavation – If the infestation is too large to attempt manual removal mechanical excavation can be used.

Physical Barriers – Rhizome barriers can be used around the root structure to ensure it doesn’t spread.

Herbicides  – Targeted chemical treatments can be used on the plant.
