Subject: Bamboo
Bamboo is beautiful but it is extremely invasive, in spite of what you read
The bamboo shoots can be cut down by mowing but while you are not looking they are shooting the other way and will get under your fences, out buildings, foundations and walkways and they can lift everything out of place after 5 years. I accidentally planted some next to out greenhouse 4 years ago and we cannot stop it's growth. It will require a backhoe to get it all out.

On the other hand, If you have a mass of property and no structures to be concerned with, you can grow a gorgeous jungle with just this bamboo
