Chepstow, UK - All You Need To Know About Bamboo in Chepstow

Bamboo has been gradually thriving in popularity for a few UK homeowners over the last decade, however, unknown to many it is an active and fast-growing grass that is actually very troublesome to contain and control. If you have, or even believe you might have Bamboo in Chepstow you should seek guidance from a professional like West Country Knotweed & Garden Services who will suggest your ideal strategy in order to ensure it does not grow out of control and take over your garden.

Bamboo is known and liked for its ornamental appearance, and often its rapid growth gives a level of privacy in overlooked gardens in urban areas, towns and suburbs meaning lots of homeowners plant it without realising its quick growth and capability to spread and take control of other vegetation. One must be very wary of growing it or taking on a home in which it exists since it is now known that many types of bamboo are very invasive and remarkably tough to regulate.

The UK Invasive Weed Control Industry is being contacted increasingly more to eradicate and manage bamboo where it has been grown at a residential property without knowing exactly how it will very likely take control, as well as where it has spread out from an adjoining garden.

###

Bamboo isn’t presently classified as an invasive plant in the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 and there are no limitations when growing it, having said that, the weed control industry is suggesting that bamboo can be as unpredictable as Japanese Knotweed with the same ability to spread out, quickly grow and infest substantial areas of land.

There have been increasingly more recent claims from homeowners who have taken legal proceedings against neighbours and residential or commercial properties around them where their bamboo has been permitted to spread out onto their residential properties and become a serious problem for them. There are various varieties of bamboo plants and some are a lot more intrusive and destructive than others.

Clump-Forming Bamboo –

This type of bamboo features a root mass much the same as standard ornamental grasses, spreading out from the centre, sprouting canes around 5-10cm from the existing plant. However, always be cautious as each bamboo plant will be different and it will often take you by surprise.

Running Bamboo –

A running bamboo spreads by its horizontal below-ground stems from which overground canes then grow. This underground stem stretches and shoots up another cane 60-80cm beyond the original sowing site making it easy for it to quickly spread. This is why a bamboo’s roots must be contained by a root barrier system or in an appropriate pot to prevent it from spreading aggressively and colonizing parts of the soil you don’t want them within.
