I'm trying to get a bamboo hedge going myself but its slow going. I am trying two varities, one looks like a low bush and it puffs out in width but doesnt grow tall. The other grows tall but it doesnt grow too much each year, plus the horrible winters we have dont help. But give it a try! Why not?

Which variaties are you growing? They should grow like weeds! We have some here at work (Center City) and it grows with no problem. Maybe your soil is too rocky or something, but bamboo usually needs to be physically restrained (like with concrete) to prevent it from running rampant.
