Actually there are 2 categories, running and clumping. Running bamboo is the invasive, hard to control, spreading type and clumping is great if you need a fence/barrier for privacy for the fact they do grow fast but clumping doesn’t “run” and get out of control. Anyone getting bamboo should definitely go with a specialist who can recommend the correct type. I did my entire yard in bamboo in CA to block an Apartment building going up behind my house. It was fantastic but I did use specific Bamboo landscapers.
