What to do when ground control doesn’t work: Bamboo
For some bamboo is a lovely plant, a welcome addition to the garden; for others bamboo is a living nightmare. Typically weed control fabric can be used to prevent the spread of unwanted plants, but the same cannot be said for bamboo. Even an ultra-strong ground control fabric is no match for bamboo due to the plant’s sheer strength – it has even been known to break through patios. Ground control and weed control fabrics are better suited to suppressing light weeds once the area has been chemically treated.
