Hi Bamboo experts, My partner and I viewed a house today we love, but we’re concerned to see this dense clump of bamboo (clearly planted as a privacy screen) on the edge of the garden, clearly between the house and the fence (even more concerning). New shoots were showing up about 15cm-ish in other vegetation. Nothing obvious on the patio. Is anyone able to figure out what species it is from this photo? Obviously the type can affect how we feel about proceeding with the house/ the risk to significant damage and neighbour problems. Any insights/ info appreciated!
