Hi Gerry, We are moving into a new house. It has a south facing private terrace that leads out to a public area. The division between neighbours is a small metal fence. I am thinking of putting in a wall of bamboo plants around the terrace in planters, and then putting other planters in that will provide interest against the bamboo. My question is: what type of planters are suitable for bamboo… I want them to line the edges rather than clumps. I have heard of self watering containers but I haven’t been able to find any “long” ones.. .just large plant pot types. Also, I am thinking of putting either a hazel or birch into a large pot as a feature in the garden. Can you tell me if either are suitable for planting in this way? Thanks Noel Kelly
