Golden Goddess Bamboo is one of our favorites! This clumping style bamboo doesn’t put out runners, so it stays where you put it. Great for screening out nosey neighbors, it grows to about 10-12’ tall, but can be kept to about 3 feet wide. It naturally grows in the sun, but can do very well in bright shade too! And best of all, you can use any trimmed canes in your veggie garden as support stakes. Versatile, gorgeous, low maintenance…what more could you ask for?

Do they put down deep roots? I’m looking for privacy, but also erosion control.
James says
Not so much deep, but very denseroot system, and so excellent erosion control after well established

Hello,
I live on the island and have concrete/deck backyard. I need a privacy screen. Will potted bamboo work? Type of bamboo and containers? How to maintain?
Thank you for your assistance, Kathy
