There are various bamboo varieties across the region. So far, we have been unable to get clarity on this from various on line sources & books. We are trying to approach some groups locally who might have more knowledge and will post back once we have more info.

  • We are thinking of having them as naturally growing separators / walls/ fences, as well as use them in various ways for landscaping.

    • Strength & higher ability to withstand high winds & monsoon is a good point as well
    • Additional pro of keeping out small creatures without building & maintaining wooden fences
  • Maybe a bunch of them can hold up a hammock and/ or some other visually different landscaping ideas :) e.g. A friend of mine does Vertical Gardens, so maybe add some of that to the mix.

    • I can post a link about vertical gardens if needed. But, this is more long term idea when they've grown & are strong enough

We'd like Indian Bamboo that is laterally strong & stiff at the 1.5-2" diameter i.e. Bamboo with a "thicker segment wall"?
