Maydmarion's Garden

Black Bamboo

Genus: Phyllostachys.

Species: Phyllostachys nigra.

Brought from ebay as very small plant. Was told it was clump forming . Planted in the garden then at the beginning of the year these really tought shoots came up through the weed liner and the purple slate!! Husband had to dig it out and put in in a bucket in the ground - hope this was a good idea
