You could possibly do black or Hawaiian
Bamboo in a control growth scenario. Also try coolaroo(sp?) out door shades For your porch. ------------------------- Style is what you make it! Edited: 04/23/2019 at 04:35 AM by palerider |

We have Budda Belly, HI striped, Black and Timber bamboo, I would not suggest any of them, also are there any power lines above? How close are you planting to the fence? Stuff grows slow then takes off, ours went under the fence and then up into the power lines (Timber). FPL did not like this, it was up in the high voltage wire. It was trimmed but "Red" crew chief from FPL gave me a verbal lashing (which I deserved, wrong planting location) The others grew but was somewhat scraggly. I would do clumps of Areca Palms, grows faster, cheap, great shade easier to control and I think looks better.

Thanks or all the info everybody. It is a narrow space between a retaining wall and neighbors viny lfence, 2-3 feet wide opening up to 5-6 as the retaining wall curves. I was wondering if these things would duck under the fence or try to come up under my stone retaining wall. Power lines not an issue, but still would be looking for something on the shorter end. I dont need a 50 ft tall plant.
