With their attractive canes and rustling leaves, bamboos make a wonderful evergreen screen or specimen plant in more sheltered areas. Clump forming varieties like Fargesia are not known to be invasive in Ireland, while some other varieties do tend to spread but can be contained within pots or sunken containers in the ground. Make sure to do your research before planting!
