If you are thinking of adding bamboo to your yard, here are some great resources to check out. Bamboo gardens are pretty easy to care for, and they are drought tolerant.

Bamboo is part of the perennial grass family; that’s right, bamboo is not a tree; it’s grass, just really tall grass. It’s also a little hard to get rid of, so you have to commit to having bamboo in your yard and take care so that it does not overrun and become too invasive.

There are many easy ways to have a bamboo garden.

  • add it to a fence line
  • have a few big potted bamboo
  • place it around a water feature
  • add it to a rock garden
  • make a fence divider from neighbors
