You are 100% correct but unfortunately Bamboo is ridiculously expensive in the USA. I live in the Philippines and the identical bamboo we buy & sell here for $1-2 dollars is sold for over $65++ in the USA.
Bamboo incredible the way grows. Back in the 80s we had it along the back fence a lot of privacy. A lot of memories. I've learnt something about bamboo thanks for sharing this video Sarah.
@@HollywoodVines Are you happy to teach & talk Bamboo cultivation in a Q & A Livestream? What are the benefits of growing in an urban environment? I would love to learn from your experience, as within the UK, it looks great for acting as a partition screen & sound barrier, whilst being positive for the carbon absorption.
After having had to cut through forests of the stuff at work, I've often said I'd NEVER plant it on my property, but I'm about to 'bite the bullet' and grow myself a privacy fence. This video helped me make that decision. Good luck, me!
Great video! I love bamboos. Recently planted two clumps of fargesia. It's amazing how fast they respond to a heavy watering if they started to dry out. I thought I lost mine but they bounced back very well😊
As one who came from south east Asia, I love bamboos. It's versatile, can be used as a building material, privacy hedging (as shown here), even for cooking (shoots). Thanks for sharing. 🙏 And what a lovely host. 😍
Your eye makeup is as immaculate as the bamboo info in your video. You have a stunning garden, and you are yourself both talented and stunning. Thanks for sharing!
I love Bamboo ae well. There is a wonderful vibe when you walk inside a bamboo forest. I plan to plant some for privacy next to my pool. Thanks for the video!
First off, woman to woman; you're super cute and I love your eye color. Second, the music in the background was perfect, I didn't really realize it until close to the end and thought, ahh thats why this video was so nice and calming to watch. And lastly, so full of all the information I was looking for along with visual examples. Perfect! 10/10!
If she wasn't cute and the content was the same there would be far less views. THAT is the truth of it. There is one gardener who was not blessed by being pretty but has one he'll of a body and she shows it off. Her views are overwhelming. If you take about 200,000 of those views away that would be a more accurate count of those who are actually interested in your verbal content. Hey.....I say it as it is. It's called "the Truth". But there is no such thing as truth anymore on social media and we are often censored for it. TH-cam practices censoring everyday and it is un-American.
Thank you. You made me realize I was not watering enough. Desert/hot climate. Looking forward to better results this year. I had done the research, but you seem to have had the same experience with lack of water. Great experiment. Thank you and be well.
Two years! Awesome video! Questions: 1. What type of soil do you have? (Clay, sand, pure black gold) 2. Wow, 2 years later! I wonder how are your bamboo doing? 3. What did the county/city ordinance say about maintaining the bamboo? 4. How deep does the bamboo rhizome system grow? I’m concerned with it growing too close to structures and compromising the foundation substrate. 5. Along with the bamboo barrier, could I use a 4”-6” thick cement trench wall? If so, how deep should I go? 6. How can you tell if you have a clumping or running bamboo? 7. If I grow nitrogen/nutrient providing Comfrey before the bamboo, would that suffice for feeding at least its nitrogen needs? 8. How tall did your bamboo grow? And how long did it take to get to that height? Thank you so much for your great help, patience and kindness in answering these questions! 😊
I love Bamboo, I have 2 varieties, black and red.. I’ve had them potted for the last 4 years or so, and next spring I will be taking them out of their pots and cutting each in half vertically.. I have watched someone do it on a TH-cam vid. I live in the UK so I don’t think bamboos here can grow to the size as the ones in your beautiful garden. Thank you for all the valuable information. Maz
use containers i've found large old cast iron baths work well and use vinca or certain ivy's to grow over the sides if you wish to hide the bath - and choose less vigorous versions.
Hi Sarah! thanks for sharing.. your bamboo's look very happy in your garden.. one thing about those "annoying" shoots, you know you can eat them.. when they pop out about 50cm.. and more then that - you can make some beautiful art with them. the shoots are traditionally used in cutlery, cups, mugs.. its beautiful and dense wood that is durable and water proof.. so you know, if you didnt already.. XX
Great video. How deep are you burying the barrier? I want to grow at my property, but have heard horror stories of it taking over. Thanks for the great info.
'stalks' don't grow back. You must cut the rhizome if you don't want it to spread. This woman is foolish. They're very possible to contain, they just require frequent attention.
Like asparagus and bindweed, the rapid growth comes from energy stored in the root system. So harvesting and cutting without giving the plant time to restore it's reserves will reduce it's ability to regrow. Hence the maturest plants with the greatest stored reserves will resprout more often and with greater vigour.
It's a useful plant. It can be invasive if planted in the wrong place, but if you have an area dedicated to it, plant the right species and take measures in advance to contain it, it's manageable. If it were as bad as everyone says it is, the whole world would be covered in it. I think loblolly pine is invasive, but you rarely hear anyone complain about it.
please help , i have just planted 500 bamboo plants on boundries of my 3 acre farm , My bamboos are 2 feet in hieght , i want them to grow faster , how much of NPK fertilizer should i give and through mixing in water or making layers?
Fantastic video! Thanks 👍😁 Just have a few questions for you. I have the same dripper system on my bamboo, yours look so good so I'm wondering how long you water them for during each of the daily patterns? Thank you from Australia!
In some areas it is wise to use clumping, rather than running, bamboo. The cold weather running bamboo can be difficult to control in hot climates . But there and a huge variety of bamboos that clump and have all the same benefits commercially and environmentally.
one maintenance activity I do is cut all the dead or even old culms out...and if you're completely bamboo ocd, you can shred/chip those culms/leaves and use that as a compost.
Thanks for the video!! I really want to put bamboo on our balcony for privacy. I called our local nursery and they said they would eventually die in a pot. The pots I have are about 18" X 18" and about 3 feet deep. I can purchase something else, if necessary. Do you think I could maintain them in a pot with good success? We are in Southern California so we never have very cold weather and they would get partial to full sunlight. Hope to hear back from you.
I have just realised my bamboo is flowering , four plants spaced out all have began the process. I am thinking of using the seed to grow more. I am wondering if any other plants in the world are also flowering as I have learnt this can happen. Great video thanks
Wow, yours looks amazing! I wonder why you fertilize the bamboo in winter time though, isn't it better to do it in early spring instead? Wouldn't the nutrients wash away during winter?
Nicely done. Looking to grow bamboo on my property in the inland northwest. Some varieties do better than others in cooler zones. Anything will grow in SoCal for the most part. I was raised there.
You have provided the information I needed. I want to grow bamboo in above ground planters. Then utilize the bamboo. BTW, I'm in Santa Monica. THAT Santa Monica.
Can you please tell me the species of Bamboo you are showing in your yard? I am looking to grow a natural privacy fence and I think this would be perfect. I hear you keep saying Giant Timber Bamboo. Is that the technical name? Can you recommend a reliable source to get seeds or starter plants? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Help! i cut down about 10 mature bamboo stalks, dragged them out to open yard and cut them down to 3 foot lengths then put in yard waste bags for garbage pick up did i do more damage by spreading bamboo seeds into areas of my yard? would a preemergent nuke kill bamboo seeds?
Watering the perimeter of your bamboo patch, no problem. But how do you water the inner part of the bamboo patch? You can't even walk through there because it's so dense.
Not sure who's prettier, her or her yard!! (of course her😎) I agree with the comment about her voice being soothing. Been trying to grow blue bamboo here in central Florida without any luck. Although I tried germinate the seeds in a pot instead of paper towel. That's next.
Bamboo generally always seem to shed leaves here and there. You may get more leaves falling at certain times of the year. Also would depend on the species.
Ive got Bissetti bamboo, about 9 plants a good 8ft high but one set of plants lacks folliage the top third is barren this set of plants get a lot of wind during winter, most of it coming off the sea, were as the other plants that are protected by a big bay tree are doing really well, not sure what to do.
Thanks for letting me know about the various types as I already have a couple of runner type plants and I understand the trouble this can bring . Question I live in the high desert of N.W. N.M. will Bamboo grow here and if so do I need to do anything special to keep it?
Greetings from the LooseNatural farm in Andalusia Spain where we currently live through a drought and we are creating swales and plant them with bamboo
Searched for bamboo, found this video that made me feel extremely calm. Thanks for sharing.
I'm addicted to bamboo. We recently acquired 10 acres in south Florida and by the time I die, it's going to look like a jungle in Thailand.

I grow sweet bamboo can harvest for cooking, make pickle and eating very delicious . have a nice day to you
What a soothing voice! Very informative and straight to the point video! Thank you!

your voice is so soothing, so is your lawn. Great job.
I love Bamboo ae well. There is a wonderful vibe when you walk inside a bamboo forest. I plan to plant some for privacy next to my pool. Thanks for the video!
Compost is also available in your own backyard, from kitchen scraps. Plus, you avoid plastic sacks and shipping of tons of dirt
Best video I came across , informative , straight to the point and loaded with great tips . I just subscribed, thanks !
Underrated micro channel
Many thanks my friend!

Right!? Her eyes look golden in the sunlight! I'd almost call them dark gold rather than brown. I've never seen anything like it.
You’re super cute too my dear
You two should kiss

By planting bamboo, without you realizing it, you have contributed to saving this planet
Thank you for the video. I've been looking for a privacy fence for my backyard garden too and now I know what to watch out for when planting bamboo.

I'm so impressed by your green skills! 🌱🌟
I’m so happy that I found your channel. I was looking for information about Bamboo and I found you lol 😊
Such a magical tree, I mean grass! I love bamboo
She made my bamboo grow!!!
Oooooh Earl your sexual innuendo is priceless 😂😂😂
I like your video on growing bamboo. My wife, and I are gonna try growing some ourselves this spring and summer...
use containers i've found large old cast iron baths work well and use vinca or certain ivy's to grow over the sides if you wish to hide the bath - and choose less vigorous versions.

Thankyou for your advice I'm laying a mote all around my property to contain the rhizomes so they somewhat controlled
I’ve tried growing bamboo, but my neighbor’s Panda keeps eating it. Any suggestions?
Thanks for the information, I have a ton of bamboo in my backyard now I know how it works.
Thank you for sharing this with people I m looking forward to start growing my own bamboo
Whoa that's the secret 2xdaily watering. Looks superb , nice production 👏🏼👏🏼
Awesome video. How deep do you place the barrier to control rhizome growth?
Great bamboo videos. Thanks. Looking to see more uses as we go.
Great video. How deep are you burying the barrier? I want to grow at my property, but have heard horror stories of it taking over. Thanks for the great info.
IF you cut a stalk of bamboo; THEN how many times can it resume growing back?
I would like to know this too
'stalks' don't grow back. You must cut the rhizome if you don't want it to spread. This woman is foolish. They're very possible to contain, they just require frequent attention.
Like asparagus and bindweed, the rapid growth comes from energy stored in the root system.
So harvesting and cutting without giving the plant time to restore it's reserves will reduce it's ability to regrow.
Hence the maturest plants with the greatest stored reserves will resprout more often and with greater vigour.
Wait 5 years before you cut. No joke.
@@austinhoffman8320 you have to wait 5 years?
Very cool and informative - and an absolute knockout - thanx
That so beautiful!!! I wish I could get some cuttings of that bamboo to grow on my property!
As fast as I can fall in love with someone's eyes explaining this :)
Bamboo forrest....beautiful!
Ella es más linda que cualquier bambú

I think loblolly pine is invasive, but you rarely hear anyone complain about it.
nice. how about a video on maintaining the pool near bamboo?
That looks amazing! I have some clumping varieties along my fenceline for privacy, but it only gets about 8 ft tall...
Hi am from uk 🇬🇧 just came across your video Looking for bamboo BUT WOW YOUR PARTNER SO SO LUCKY to have you good video's seen a lot now 😊😊😊❤

Thank you for such a great presentation. With enough water & nitrogen, bamboo sounds like it would make a great "gap filler" for the border wall.
Wow, yours looks amazing! I wonder why you fertilize the bamboo in winter time though, isn't it better to do it in early spring instead? Wouldn't the nutrients wash away during winter?
Nicely done. Looking to grow bamboo on my property in the inland northwest. Some varieties do better than others in cooler zones. Anything will grow in SoCal for the most part. I was raised there.
This is awesome! Can you show how this looks from outside your garden?

what is the official name for this bamboo type? it is absolutely beautiful!! ❤️
unfortunately she only gave "giant timber bamboo" as species, but there are several subtypes afaik
Hola
How very nice of you to share all the information about this amazing plant ... "Bamboo"
#Gratitude
Have you pruned your bamboo at any point?
What kind of bamboo is it??
Does it survive winter?
Sun or shade?
Normal watering or more than average?
Thanks.
First off. Man to woman. Youre a weed in the fields of roses, resilient, strong, beautiful when understood. I want to understand you ❤
Thays my "rizz"
Do you get flute quality bamboo roots from any of your plants?
Love your accent you are making my bamboo grow really fast and really hard.
Great video! How deep is your bamboo barrier?
Help! i cut down about 10 mature bamboo stalks, dragged them out to open yard and cut them down to 3 foot lengths then put in yard waste bags for garbage pick up did i do more damage by spreading bamboo seeds into areas of my yard? would a preemergent nuke kill bamboo seeds?
Watering the perimeter of your bamboo patch, no problem. But how do you water the inner part of the bamboo patch? You can't even walk through there because it's so dense.
I think this is the answer to the current lumber crisis, problem is getting it processed into construction grade plywood by next month.
Not sure who's prettier, her or her yard!! (of course her😎) I agree with the comment about her voice being soothing. Been trying to grow blue bamboo here in central Florida without any luck. Although I tried germinate the seeds in a pot instead of paper towel. That's next.
I bought one that was in water but when I transplanted into dirt I lost alot of it. Not enough water? Thx.
Man, I've been doing it all wrong! 2x a day? I see netafim tubing. 2GPH? How long are you running it for? Your bamboo looks amazing!
We are considering bamboo near our pool like yours... is there always leaf fall or just certain times per season?
Pools attract leaves from the neighbors if need be! No way it’s ok to have a leaf free pool just goes against nature.
Bamboo generally always seem to shed leaves here and there. You may get more leaves falling at certain times of the year. Also would depend on the species.
Fascinating, more work than I thought!
What particular variety is that?
Ive got Bissetti bamboo, about 9 plants a good 8ft high but one set of plants lacks folliage the top third is barren this set of plants get a lot of wind during winter, most of it coming off the sea, were as the other plants that are protected by a big bay tree are doing really well, not sure what to do.
HOLLY MOLLY!!! that is a privacy WALL!! amazing!
Thanks for letting me know about the various types as I already have a couple of runner type plants and I understand the trouble this can bring . Question I live in the high desert of N.W. N.M. will Bamboo grow here and if so do I need to do anything special to keep it?
Where'd you get the seeds/ cuttings
How do you contain the rhizomes?
How deep do you need to put the barrier in ?
What variety of bamboo is this?
What kind is that you're growing?
Compost from a nursery or hardware store?
i have black bamboo...and its growing everywhere.....should i take everything out and put it in a barrel....btw you are extremely pretty
Hi, what is the variety of this very tall clumping bamboo?
I live in zone 7 (Niagara falls Canada).
I would love to have it as my fence privacy.
How does the plastic bamboo barrier help? Isn’t bamboo able to grow through things as strong as concrete?
You are correct. It will just crawl underneath. She should update that portion.
Greetings from the LooseNatural farm in Andalusia Spain where we currently live through a drought and we are creating swales and plant them with bamboo
Cool video, Andre
The bamboo look beautiful and she looks amazing.
My shoot started rising just looking at you and your bamboo
Love this video thank you for all the tips
Nice, well presented and detailed… thanks for sharing…
What kind of bamboo is this one?
