Large spreading vigorous Bamboo for Seattle?
Could anyone reccomend a large Bamboo that is hardy in Seattle, grows quickly, and likes to spread?

I'm not sure if you are the same person who posted this question in the GWeb forum, but here is an answer from there:
Ph. aurea; S. fastuosa, Ph. nigra; Ph. dulcis; Ph. humilis; Ph. vivax 'Aureocaulis'. These have all done well for me in the Seattle area. Amount of available sunshine will be a big factor.
Local conditions seem to be very significant factors as you implied, so hopefully more folks from the PNW will reply.[/i][/b]
