Testing the waters -- new pond or three in my future

You could wait 100 years for it to bloom. Most varieties die after that.

FYI: there are varieties of bamboo called "clumping" that do not spread.
The only way I now of to get rid of bamboo involves a shovel and lots of
sweat.


We're not talking shovels here.. we're talking renting a small track hoe, or
some such.. otherwise it'll be growing up behind me as I clear it out! I
have almost 1/4 acre of it now, and my yard is only 1.23 acres as it is.
