A word of warning about Bambo plants: Keep them in a large ceramic pot if you value your garden...think Kudzu with martial arts expertise.

The small bamboo plants are the ones I’m thinking of. They are usually formed into loose coils or some other exotic style, and sit on a desk. Or window sill. They are popular here, as people say they bring “money luck.”
Not being a gambler, I wouldn’t know, but I do like the way they look.

PS: But yah...doesn’t bamboo grow a foot a day in its natural habitat? If so, I can understand how it could take over a garden... all you would need then is a panda...

Bamboo is grass. It’s tall, woody grass, but it’s grass.
And it will go everywhere you allow it, just like grass will (except where you want it, of course - or is that just me?).
If you plant some in your yard, plant a segment of cement culvert vertically first so it can’t spread.
You’ve been warned.
