Greywater cleaning

Posted by treeguy123 7a AL (My Page) on

We have some wild (Arundinaria gigantea) and I was wondering if they could grow and clean or dry up a wet greywater area in our yard? Does bamboo take up lots of water? We have thick clay soil so our washing machine water comes up to the surface of the ground and it always has a awful sour stench and also if anybody knows of any other plants that will clean a wet place would be appreciated. Thanks.

Cypress, Salt Cedars, and Willow trees are used for this purpose down here and do quite well. They may do well in your area also.
