I've wanted to try bamboo but have the same concerns about creating a monster. One thought I had was taking a large livestock tank, either the long oval one or a large round one, knocking the bottom entirely out and burying the remaining ring then planting the bamboo inside it. Anyone know how deep the roots/runners go? I imagine it depends on the variety but thought maybe the 2 feet or so would be enough to contain it.
