Benefits

• Bamboo usually grows up to 8 feet tall, providing you with an attractive and natural fence. Also, bamboo absorbs more carbon dioxide than most plants, giving you a fence that provides fresh oxygen.
  
  

Types

• Two types of bamboo to consider are runners and clumpers. Runners are more attractive and cold hardy than clumpers but can be more difficult to contain. Clumpers are easier to grow, handle sunlight better and get thicker than the other type.
  
  

Significance

• When you plant bamboo, the use of mulch is essential. Bamboo needs high levels of nitrogen to grow well. Bamboo also likes water and it should be watered every day that it does not rain for its first year. Just be careful not to over-water bamboo.
