Hi,
I'm not a green thumb whatsoever so I thought I'd ask for some feedback here around growing bamboo.
My partner is Asian and loves the idea of using bamboo in the front yard to give us a bit more privacy than or fence does today.
First, are there certain varieties that will/ wont grow in the Melbourne climate and second, I've heard they can behave much like weeds and grow out of control and make a mess. I don't want to spend every weekend trying to keep it under control or cleaning up after it.
I'm hoping there is an easy solve to both of my questions.
Thank you in advance.
Kieran.
