bamboo screen

15 years ago

I am looking to plant a fast-growing privacy screen in front of corner windows. I have seen this done with very thin plants and not too tall. Do you just keep cutting them back?

I have been told to use clumping only. The area is pretty much full sun. Any suggestions?

Thanks.
