You have a rogue shoot, that sucks.
I just planted two Bambusa Oldhamii in my backyard. In three years they will be 18 metres (59 feet in Freedom Units) tall and the culms will be 4-6 inches in diametre.
They are clumpers not runners
Yep! Awesome. What zone are you in? We're zone 8b and most clumpers can't take a hard freeze.

No idea what zone I am in as I am in SE Australia, but to give you an idea, we have a very long, hot and dry Summer like Texas but our Winters are nowhere near as cold. We barely get below freezing overnight in Winter.
Its a dry Mediterranean climate
Hey there fellow Aussie 🫂🇦🇺
