I'm a stubborn fool
. Just to clarify, where I would plant bamboo has nothing around....just land. I have one acre that I have to bush hog pine trees every couple of years....dense growth (impossible to walk through) that I had to clear with a chainsaw several years ago....hundreds of them, but those areas are easily managed now. How would a small field of bamboo be any different? I've thought about attempting to get a growth pines started, but that's just not practical.
I understand what everyone is cautioning about, but don't think it applies to my situation.
Still thinking....
