Clumping bamboo grows fast and builds a tall, narrow wall of green in a small footprint. It is the choice when you want privacy quickly and do not have much width.
Clumping types do not spread by runners the way running bamboos do. The clump widens only a few inches a year.
Thin out old canes once a year, keep it mulched and watered, and top it at the height you want. It is hard to remove later, so pick the spot carefully.
Good for
- Fast tall privacy
- Narrow spaces
- Sides and rear
As a privacy hedge
- Hedge height: 15 to 30 ft
- Fills in: Fast, about 3 to 6 ft a year
- Trimming: Thin old canes yearly and top at the legal height, 1 to 2 times a year
- Best spot: Sides and rear where you want height in a narrow strip
- Note: Clumping types only. Leaf litter, and drought stress browns the leaves. Hard to remove later. Never plant running bamboo.
