We have two types of bamboo here in the USA, the native one and non-native bamboo, the invasive ones.
Fig 01 - Bamboo plants, illustration.
The invasive bamboo, called running bamboo with most invasive is Phyllostachys sp. The genus could:
- grow 15 feet (about 3 m) tall
- covering the yards quickly
- blocking the sun, makes no grass growing
These the reasons why many states in the USA "banned" the invasive bamboo. The states that prohibit this bamboo includes Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Maryland, Washington and many others.

Since Pennsylvania bans bamboo I guess that's why I haven't seen any. Actually I didn't realize they were ban here. Thanks for sharing. Hope you had a great weekend.
