Palmbob, I love this one. It is beautiful. Is it a clumper or a runner?

This is a clumper, pretty safe, but in time, will eventually spread out and get into other areas (spreads about 6"-1' a year in every direction)... easy to stop by must kicking over the new shoots.

I would certainly like to try some of this. Do you know of a source where I can get it?

You can get this bamboo from many different sources, many of them mail order, so no problems.

Try this site: http://www.americanbamboo.org/TOC.html
