Hi,
I am new to the bamboo world and I was wondering if someone could help me out. Is there any bamboo species that grow between 10-15 feet tall and does not spread with rhizomes? I live in USDA zone 6 and the area I’m thinking about is about 16 feet by 6 feet up against a stockade fence and it’s in full sun. I guess my biggest concern is it spreading all over my yard.
Thanks,
Hanami

Is this it? I like it a lot. A thick clump would look perfect.
Thanks Sam!

That is it exactly
It is a beautiful bamboo which doesn't 'spread' very much
I hope it works for you:)

I have several varieties of fargesia along my back fence, for the purpose of making a screen against the busy road back there. They're all just newly planted or less than a year old, but they're super-hardy and don't spread much, which is why I chose those ones in particular.
