Be cafeful with the bambo. It grows like crazy and spreads out like a weed. My friend just pulled all his.

C'mon Scott...you know I'm a master gardener (minus the degree). I've set up some "safety" measures simply for the reason that bamboo is a crazy, spreading delight. We have about a 3 foot high raised bed that it's growing in, so we should see the roots poking out. Then, we cut them off....hopefully.
