Alphonse Karr Bamboo is a clumping bamboo, making it much more manageable and less invasive in the garden. Running bamboo, on the other hand, sends its rhizomes in many directions before sending up new shoots. It can easily take over the garden and needs to be physically contained. While clumping bamboo is slower growing than the running varieties, you will still get an attractive and fully filled-in screen within a few years.

what if we put something like plexi glass screen against the back fence. So we could still see the wood through it but not clearly visible. Then we could have the bamboo spread out not so close together
