How odd to have this 100 foot long thicket of bamboo growing along the road near my home. I'm sure the person who originally planted this had no idea how invasive this plant is. This is not the woody stemmed plant we see pandas nibbling on, but I believe it is some variation that would look better deep in the jungle.
We had a patch of it here growing by the Bushkill when we first moved here in 2003. It wasn't very big then but last Spring they had to cut it all out as it was threatening to take over the road! There are still a few sprigs left and I wonder how long it will take before someone says, "let's get that out of here now BEFORE it takes over again!"
