The other thing is you can have a grove as big or small as you require. karl.
The thing I found Karl, and this was only a 6 foot tall arrow bamboo in the back of my garden in dry ground...
Is actually digging out and seperating the monsters, nearly broke me spade and it really wasnt an easy task.
Dread to think how i'd control 25/30 LOL!
