Not only is bamboo fast growing (and yes, it can grow in Ohio), but it grows in Las Vegas of all places. My husband and I are landscape architects. When we lived in Las Vegas, we were surprised to learn how evasive bamboo can be. Even in Las Vegas, it is important to plan carefully where you want your bamboo. Sometimes, the only way to keep it contained is to create root barriers and plant it in a planter that has distinct edges (concrete works well, though it must be deep and thick). If you’re really going green with your bamboo, you should plan on it growing, and going, where it wants (and pray that if you have neighbors, that they like bamboo as well)!
