Good point.  Anyone who intends to plant the bamboo should warn their
neighbors unless they do the 6"+ concrete container method.  I do not intend
to plant bamboo ever myself (these were inherited from previous owners).

I posted previously regarding their aggressiveness.

I'm trying hard to get all the roots so it doesn't get into the yard next to
ours either.  It's difficult enough just getting any roots out at all.  It's
really nasty stuff.  Imagine a spider web, where each strand is 1/2 inch
thick or more, solid woody stuff, with smaller stringy roots digging in to
the ground all along each strand.
