The bamboo I had saved as being non invasive and recommended was Fargesia robusta 'Campbell' (Campbell's form).
I think I've got a list of some others I can dig out.
Bamboo multiplies sideways rather than over the ground or sending out roots underground. That's why people contain the edges.
I'd be curious to know whether the less invasive ones still need to be contained if anyone has experience?
Cheers, that's given me a a few options. The Fargesia robusta 'Campbell' looks like a likely candidate. Just need to work out whether I can get away with the foot or so depth or if it will end up too bushy and cover the garden.
