If you're considering bamboo for your landscape, it's vital that you take some time to study proper installation and containment techniques (e.g., what to use for a rhizome barrier, how often to prune the rhizomes, how to create a hedge, etc.). Everything I learned in this video came from Bamboo Garden. Don't fear bamboo! Embrace it. Learn how to control it and you too can enjoy the beauty and mystique of a bamboo grove.
I want to see an updated video after a while to see how they grew!!
Thanks for the info! I live in Southern New Jersey where I have a ton of bamboo trees. However, I had to chop them down because they’re growing into my neighbor’s yard. But because of this video, I’m going to build a barrier and grow them again because not only are they gorgeous to look at, they also provide maximum privacy and work as a great sound barrier.
My neighbors planted bamboo 16 years ago and it has only grown straight up, about 25’. They have cut the top twice but that’s all the maintenance it has ever needed and it provides a nice dense privacy screen.
Yay bamboo!!!
No problem. Glad I could help. The hedge is looking great right now (a couple months later). Much greener and thicker. All the new canes have come in. I will post a new vid a little later to show people how things are coming along.
Thanks this is great! We dont have any running bamboo, as we are in the tropics and it goes nut here.
I think for your colder climate, your running bamboo wouldnt have gone too nuts - I think its the heat and humidity that fuels it.
My clumping bamboo is going strong and I learned how to prune it back from your wonderful video.
Thanks again

I always thought of bamboo as a tropical plant, the fact they appear that way can give a northern landscape a great look , year around.
There are quite some haters here. As far as I could see, It is only his yard that he should worry about because there is a road or alley on the other side of the fence. Keep up the great work man!
You can cut a little of the tops off to reduce leaning from the wind and make the plant stronger as it matures.
"I want to help, lets do one more" adorable :)
agreed!
I am glad to see you did everything exactly as suggested.I had planned to use Bamboo for my pool area but found so many negative comments on it, and I did not want to spend that much time and labor.Looks like you are taking the time to get it right.Hope it works out well for you.Bamboo is beautiful if properly done.Keep us updated as it grows.
You'll be sorry you ever saw this.
Mix in a LOT of old oak leaves or any leaf you have when planting and that will be like liquid gold for them. The roots will shoot through it and promote Mychorizal fungus and strong roots. I put a half a trash can full of leaves in every hole per plant.
Great job thanks for sharing!!
WRONG. I did it because I like doing tutorials. I've been to the Bamboo Gardens exactly two times. Once to look at the different bamboos (then home to take some time to think about it) then a second time to buy my bamboo. I did plug them because they were awesome. Zero pressure and extremely knowledgeable and good prices and healthy plants. Can't beat that. ;)
I woulsd love to see your bamboo today! Your children must be growing up nicely too! Update please!
With all this work it still makes me nervous seeing bamboo going in. It is so invasive. Cute kids, great video Thankyou !!!
There is another great place to buy bamboo plants over in the state of Georgia, The Ty Ty Nursery in Ty Ty, Georgia. They have lots of different varieties of bamboo plants.
if you have a problem with bamboo spreading to unwanted areas jusr keep it mowed i had bamboo planted and i noticed small clusters in the grass so i just mow over it no problem
Wholesome + Helpful info = quality content
I would LOVE to see an update of this yard.
Boring Channel what happened to the bamboo. Dit it spread out of control?
I just uploaded the update yesterday
My Boring Channel add link to this video description
Planting some Chinese timber bamboo this year. I thought I saw Gilligan helping you dig.
First of all, I love your passion about the plant. Its really appreciated. After so much of hard work, your bamboo plants looking so great and fresh. Thanks for sharing this bamboo planting video. I hope in the future, you will come with more plantation idea.
More videos will come each year!
What's d purpose of trench?
thats for the petroleum he will pour into it a few years from now, hoping desperately that the napalm treatment will solve this self-created problem of his.
Spoiler alert: It will not.
@@QuizmasterLaw What else do you do for fun, in your spare time, besides write evil, destructive posts to people working to improve their lives?
I tear wings off of flies, put moths in killing jars, also I have a large black panel van
Wanna ride?
Just found your channel. Luv it. Thanks.
very nicely explained and to the point. Keep up the good work !!
I thought the shoots would be able to penetrate through those plastic barriers
Meanwhile your neighbor received a free privacy screen without lifting a finger.
Can we see what that bamboo looks like now 5 yrs later ?
Thanks, Gerry from San Diego, CA
There are several update videos.
heyyyyy , you've got Gilligan helping you. thats cool🤣
Wow what a great job...looked like a lot of work. Perhaps I don't want Bamboo after all.
and pre watering thoroughly a day before your dig will ensure that post planting watering will have a much better result by letting the water go "down" rather that running off!
Looks like a nice project. Can't wait for a final photo/vid to see how it all turns out!
Very informative and useful video, thank you very much.
I love all the rocks you dug up! 😁
That was the hardest part
Thank you so much for posting this. Very informative. You planted the bamboo almost 2 years ago. Can you post a video update? Curious about controlling spread and density of foliage for privacy. How often do you maintain the bamboo, etc.?
***** I actually replaced the running bamboo with some clumping bamboo. It was doing REALLY good. It never escaped, but I never actually had real peace of mind about the project. I had it contained as well as anyone could I suppose. But people like Gary Diamond (below) always kept my mind working and eventually I dug out the rhizomes and took them back to where I bought them and he traded me the rhizomes for some healthy new clumpers - Robusta and Scabrida. I'll post a video of them soon. Those two varieties still get quite tall (around 15 feet) and very dense -- even more dense than the Spectabilis.
It was a lot of maintenance. I was constantly in a state of worry about it. I kept telling myself all was well, but I had visions of it getting out and me having to pay $$$$ for someone to eradicate it from my yard. I also though that it might be difficult to resell the house if someone else didn't like it.
The clumping varieties I bought were Robusta Fargesia (check out this link - www.bamboogarden.com/Fargesia%20robusta%20Green%20Screen.htm) and Fargesia Scabrida (www.bamboogarden.com/Fargesia%20sp.%20'Scabrida'.html). Great varieties. Can't wait to see how much they grow this year. I've had them for about 6 months now
Any updates? I'd love to see it now!
now its 5 years
One more here asking for updates, please! ;)
We planted black bamboo with this method, sinking a double-thick layer of extra-thick rhizome barrier in a full circle, metal clamps on the overlapped edges, etc. 2 years later, the little buggers escaped underneath the 30" deep barrier and ran wild. It's cost $4k so far to get it fully dug out, and it was only part-way mature. The rhizomes that pop up over the top are easy... but they can and will go deeper than the traditional 17-20" listed by the pros.
That is actually not the recommended method because you did not leave a side open for root trimming. The bamboo will try to run deeper if it if it is completely boxed in. Bamboo naturally likes to stay near the surface so will try to run along the surface first.
I hope everybody that doesn't like bamboo is wrong because I plan on keeping this for some time. If it does get out of my contained area I will be the first to admit it right here.
@@myboringchannel how are you getting on containing them in 2019? I'm going to fully contain them with a 1M (40") deep full circle. Keeping my fingers crossed. Just digging the area now!!!
Do you have any updated videos of what the bamboo looks like now?
There's a link at the end of his video to other more recent videos
Good job! Waiting to see what happens with yours before I start my project
Thank you for your reply. Perhaps You may be able to answer a question for which I haven’t had a good answer. I want to plant bamboo in my property in upstate NY by Lake Champlain -I want to know what kind of bamboo is allowed to grow in the state. Then, I’m interested in a bamboo that I can harvest and use it in personal, small, no-comercial projects. Given the nature of my property, non-contained bamboo is not a mayor issue, although I don’t want it to take over. So, what kind of bamboo would you recommend according to the above info. Is clumping bamboo an option to get stalks long enough to use on a variety of projects? Thanks
Thank you! Cheers from Beaverton , Oregon 🍻✌
Thanks, great job on the bamboo how-to. I'm guessing by now, that house is almost hidden. It's inspiring watching the row of large rocks lined up with a perfect trench.
Kat Pryde I actually replaced the running bamboo with clumping bamboo because I had no peace about it. You can see my video on the clumping bamboo on my channel. I will make a new one next summer as well. I planted Robusta and Scabrida as both varieties do well in full sun.
Thank you for the video. You're little girl is adorable helping you along. :-)
Please do an update video...I would like to see your Bamboo Garden now!!!
Will do!! Coming in a while ... hasn’t yet started growing this season
This is exactly what i did !
But after about 10 years the roots of the bamboo are pushing through the HDPE barrier ! Only difference here is that i used a barrier of about 23 inches instead of 28 . But it does not matter when the bamboo will push itself through in time , cos it will happen one day when the root system has filled up all the area within the barrier .
I replaced it with clumping bamboo. There are several update videos.
Glad to help!
Subscribed straight away just for your name alone 😆
Cool. Thanks🙃
Working on a bamboo vid right now. Going on a new rock hunt on Wednesday. More stuff coming! Thanks for the sub!
Is there any clumping bamboo that grows as tall or is it a good insurance policy to add the blockage barrier to them as well? Cheers is there any updates of this any tips you have discover over the years? Did it escape the barrier?
Where are you? Connecticut? When I lived in Brookfield, Ct, I couldn’t put the shovel in the ground anywhere without hitting a rock or boulder. When we had our driveway widened, our contractor removed a boulder which he estimated to be the size of a VW bug! I watched him try to roll it across the yard as it almost tipped the bulldozer over.
Well done... This looks like a lot of work but well worth the effort to have well contained Bamboo. I wonder if making a raised bed 24"-30" tall would have the same effect.
PlantzNThings Thanks for the comment! It was a lot of work. The raised bed would work BUT having the front open is an important part because it allows you to root trim the plant, preventing it from becoming root-bound.
that makes sense.
PlantzNThings Nothing works, but ripping it out, it climbs over 3 foot rocks in just two weeks, sends out a green snake like runner even freezing cold won't hurt it, in the end, it's will win and you will lose and spend a small fortune for nonthing just don't plant it
The boy was like gas gas gas
Love the project. Love the house! Your family is adorable :) Thanks for the info about bamboo!
Just wondering why you didn’t use clumping bamboo
May God Have Mercy On Your Soul. This Stuff is Dynamite. Left Unchecked, It Will Consume Your Entire Yard! Don’t Even Think about Relying On An Idiot Gardener. Most of Them Are Haters That Will Just Let it Grow.
good job learned something by the way love your wife's character reminds me of my wife, keep working lol
How did the grove work out? I'm in the process of taking mine out and it's breaking my heart. By now you know how your bamboo behaves; I hope it didn't jump the front trench. Mine did and hence, my yard is a mess from digging runners.
I replaced mine with clumping videos. There are several update videos.
I honestly think y'all are the people down at the bamboo garden
Haha. Nope.
I've heard eventually I have to take them out from container and plant it in ground? They also told me they are invasive even the clumping one and that they alot of work to mantain??
I need something to block my 2 story neighboor house and also something for my side yard fence which is 173ft long. I live in clovis california in the city on a corner lot..my yard sits high so people from outside can see inside my yard..would like to keep them in containers all the time
You can keep them in containers. They will get root bound though. Clumpers aren’t too invasive.
if you bamboo is spreading in the wrong direction go to mother plant go down deep with a spade it will cut that runner you can pull it out of the ground not very deep
i wonder as opposed to the trench, why not just line both sides of the hole trench with the protective plastic?
Because eventually it will become root-bound and the border will break
Why did you choose running bamboo over clumping bamboo? Thanks to anyone who answers my question.
the killer wife say "keep working!"
she reminds me of my wife lol
😂🤣
@@tonyv1505 She reminds me of my EX-wife ha
Our place is parked on, essentially, pit-run-gravel...river bed rocks. ..Digging that, is epically hard to do. Only a few hand tools work, like a mattock paired with a pick, or, a pointed hoe....and hours of back-breaking labor.
Is there such a rentable machine that can trench deep enough into that?
If we planted clumping bamboo, would that help keep it contained to a fence line?
Will a bamboo hedge last as long as, say, a yew, or other type of hedge?
Sorry don't know the answers to your questions.
Any chance you can post a quick video showing how this looks now that 5 years have passed?
There are several update videos.
Excellent Little Helpers !!
He sounds like Harrison Ford - sounds like Han Solo talking!
Question... why not just put the barrier all the around so you don’t need to prune??
Eventually the barrier would break
Is Arizona a good place to plant Bamboo??
Your lawn looks lush! My Lady Garden is all overgrown and full of mice and earwigs!
+Johnny Knoxville LOL. It's not looking so good rightnow!
Hey I live In beaverton and i am thinking of planting or installing bamboo... how does the bamboo look now? 2020
I replaced it with clumping.
@@myboringchannel what is clumping, another type of bamboo?
Is it the same method of installation? How tall is it?
@@jstee503 send me an email or twitter handle or something & I'll shoot you a picture. It's about 15 feet probably. I've had it for 3-4 years I think. It's thickening up. I don't think you have to install the barrier but it does spread pretty wide (the variety I have). I have Robusta and Scabrida (the Robusta does better).
@@jstee503 Running bamboo runs. Spreads like wildfire over large distances. Clumping bamboo stays together and spreads a little wider each year. But each plant stays together and doesn't run all over holy hell.
You guys are tough.... that's a lot of rocks ... to dig ... great job
Great info, thanks for the upload. Are you planning on uploading the end results? I would like to see how tall it has grown.
I'm happy with coals or diesels. I don't mind saw dusts either.
How fast will it grow, and what species can i use when temp. during winter gets -25 C
Hvala ti puno na informaciji, do sada nisam nigdje nasao gdje bi mogao da ga uzmem (a da je relativno blizu)! :)
Whats the update on this? What does the bamboo look like now?
We just made an "island" by surrounding the bamboo with the barrier. NO annual rhizome trimming required.
Depending on the type of bamboo, that barrier will eventually fail
Did it block the light into your neighbors yard?
Well, I've only had it a few months and it's grown pretty darn fast. The whole grove has literally doubled in size since I planted it (new culms) but it's about the same height. I'm expecting many new culms next summer and then new growth will probably be about three feet higher. I don't know what species you should get for the cold temps. Check out the bamboo garden website.
YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED
have you ever thought maybe this was a bad idea?
You willl!
This video was from 9 years ago, so what does it look like today?
Check my channel. There are tons of updates
those are beautiful rocks I would love to find that but all I get is strait sand stone that augers can't drill though after 1.5 ft lol
ugh. sounds terrible
So much digging worth it tho looks great/ Renting a 48 in Trencher just because.. it’s worth the $50 vrs shovel plus I have no friends 😁
I’m sorry. I would help you if I could
I have the problem.. neighbors are higher behind us.. with a view strait into our pool area...hate it... so planted some bamboo... waiting for it to bush up... 2.7m up wud be perfect...previous owner 15yrs... ddnt do nothing about it...
well . . . wait a few months. I'll post a vid of how it has grown. Thanks for the comment.
How did all this go? Did you have any problems with containment? And how high did they grow? Tnx
@@vuk8550 no problems. But I replaced it with clumping a few years later. Plenty of vids on my channel.
phyllostachys aureosulcata moze da izdrzi nase zime bez problema. sadnicu mozes da kupis u rasadniku torteli u temerinu.
How’s it looking this year
It’s clumping bamboo now. Plenty of videos on my channel
How did everything work out for you?
Great. I replaced it with clumping bamboo. There are several update videos.
How did it turn out? I would really like to plant bamboo but I keep hearing it is so dangerous
Replaced it with clumping bamboo. There are several update videos.
Good video very informative...
Its now 2020, would love to see a quick follow up on how it turned out. ;)
I have tons of newer videos! Check my channel.
No matter how deep you dig the root will eventually spread every were as far as 20 to 40 feet. If you want to protect it from spreading every where, make concrete gutter first it will definitely stop the root from spreading.
until the concrete cracks anyway... which it will eventually. and then he is FUCKED.
Yea those rocks look nice
Any update video ??
There are lots and lots. Check my channel.
I'm just wondering how the containment and growth turned out. I lost some trees in a tornado a couple of years ago that left my yard incredibly 'unprivate.' I think a bamboo fence would be perfect, but I sure don't want it to overtake my yard. I'd love to hear how it worked out!
It won't grow where you mow. I contained mine with my mower. People talk about it like its a wild animal. Lol
+bobby harvill people talk about it like it's a wild animal because once you let it go for a while, it's like one. With proper containment and regular care, however, it's pretty easy to maintain and control. Personally, I wouldn't rely on a mower to contain a large, healthy hedge of running bamboo. I'd use a proper root barrier or put it on a mound where it can be root trimmed.
+Marcy Allen Hi there Marcy. I actually removed the running bamboo and have replaced it with clumping bamboo - Scabrida and Robusta, both of which can (supposedly) handle full sun. Check out my most recent video on it herre - ua-cam.com/video/vwmVMpX_QyQ/v-deo.html
Marcy Allen, would be bamboo victim...
You going make a follow up
I've made a bunch of follow-up videos. I have links at the end of the video which will take you there or you can check my channel for all my bamboo videos
Hi I live in clovis california in the city and would like to know what type of bamboo and if this plant is good and low maintance to block my 2 story house neighboors or should I look into aluhja pine trees? I just need wherever I plant to be about 15-20 ft tall and about 10-15ft wide. Thank u
consider something before planting hedges that grow that tall, in an urban setting.
There are now laws against "blocking your neighbor's solar access". So, if your years-to-mature, 30' tall bamboo hedge, starts blocking the neighbor's access to sun, they could legally require you to crop-it down to a much lower height...like the usual 6' fence height.
Sounds like some liberal bullshit
That's too bad. It would be nice to see some long term follow-ups with the running bamboo. I need to plant 250ft of privacy landscaping in my backyard as well but not sure how well I can contain it. I live in North Dallas. Feel free to offer any advice.
+Yassine K Just plant clumping bamboo. DON't plant running.
It's now 02/2018 - can you give us a progress video ???
There are several update videos.
Very informative video
do you know if this type or of any type that will grow in shade (under very old mature trees) and still provide privacy screen?
What does the bamboo hedge look like today?
how it looks today ?
Hey look! It's Gilligan!
Gilligan? Uh, OK. That's a first.
Would not be able to do that legally in the UK as the neighbours can claim right to light and the bamboo would be required to be moved
So I couldn't plant tall trees in my own yard? Stupid. Glad I don't live there.
Great tutorial. I replaced my lawn with the running bamboo Phyllostachys vivax 'huangwenzhu.' Much less work and more interesting than the traditional lawn.
Really nice job. I'd love to see pictures in a couple of years.
then you will see bamboo hell, i have, you cannot contain it!!!!!
Gary Diamond Its so true what they say. First year sleep, second year creep, third year leap. I bought ten 1 gal Phyllostachys bissetii plants 3 years ago. I DID NOT contain the area, it was a few hundred feet from my house on close to 10 acres. So didn't really want to do the work or the expense of trenching it with rhizome barrier. Didn't do much year 1, a few new shoots year 2 per each plant, this year, year 3, over 50 new shoots growing as far as 10 feet from the original planting, WOW! Kind of anxious now, left as is, it will no doubt be a HUGE problem in a decade. So I trenched one side, to keep it from creeping toward the house. Even though I was about 5 feet from the nearest new shoots coming up, the bamboo "root mat" had already, in many areas, crossed my arbitrary line. Pulled it out and transplanted it back 10 feet in another area. Was only going to go about 16 inches deep, but after looking around on-line, I am going the full 28 inches deep with a 2 inch above ground barrier. Lots of work. MBC: Would like to see what your hedge is looking like. Wait till next year when the "leap" part kicks in! Thanks for sharing.
BWAHAHAHAHAHA
