Bamboo

While I enjoy the look of the bamboo that is envading my yard I have been spending a lot of time trying to contain it. It is an on goning issue and one that has kept me in the yard for some time.

My neighbor's yard has been sharing with my yard for some time. It has managed to move at least eight feet into the yard in some places. Digging it up and putting in barriers is just about the only way to prevent it from spreading! Needless to say it is a lot of work and a project that will take me most of the summer to do. In the mean time there are muddy sections of the yard and less grass. I hope to be able to put grass seed down in some spots soon. Not that the husband wants to mow any more then necessary, but it is rather un sightly. Thank goodness it is in the back yard!
