Pandas are known to eat it, but bamboo is fast becoming the latest renewal resource. Bamboo is actually a grass, but industries are seeing the potential for multiple uses, particularly in hardwood and household flooring.
Since bamboo is a grass, it makes for an aesthetically pleasing and attractive addition to any garden. Bamboo has two types: clumpers and runners. Runners, as their name suggests, will run as far and wide as they possibly can. Clumpers clump around the center of the bamboo and grow slowly outward. Some varieties of bamboo have both types of bamboo, while there are varieties which only have one type.
There are plenty of varieties to chose from, many that can grow in full shade to full sun gardens. Unlike many household plants, bamboo requires a great deal of water, which is why is grows so well in tropical regions. If your yard is not a moist area, or does not have an area of water collection for your bamboo, you will need to water it more often than your other plants.
