With over 1,000 species in existence, bamboo is the ultimate test of a gardener’s patience. Whether it’s the clumping varieties or those aggressive underground rhizomes currently eyeing up your deck and water tanks, it’s a weed that requires a serious plan of attack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Bamboo Buster 450ml Brush Bottle is that plan. Designed specifically to tackle the toughest of the tough, it’s been trialled on various species with very satisfying results. For the truly relentless patches, it might take a couple of follow-up treatments to fully sap the vigour from the root systems, but we know you’re in it for the long game. If you see deformed new growth popping up from old stumps, just paste the leaves and stay the course.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat sets this apart is its restraint. While there are more toxic ways to kill bamboo, they often leave a nasty, long-term residue in your soil. Bamboo Buster gives you the power to reclaim your garden without spoiling the ground for whatever you choose to plant next. It’s a surgical strike, not a carpet bomb.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd while it’s a bamboo specialist, it’s equally effective on other woody invaders: Chinese and tree privet, gorse, barberry, hawthorn, and that evergreen buckthorn that just won't take a hint.

We recommend keeping it well away from your sensitive natives or any plants with closely associated root systems.
