Bamboo commonly grows in clumps. A stalk of bamboo will grow from a seed or rhizome. The stalk produces rhizomes and roots beneath the soil. New stalks appear around the first stalk and within eight years, the original stalk has reached its maturity. The soil beneath the topsoil may become so thick with roots and rhizomes that it is impossible to dig without the aid of saws and picks. This formation of a clump through spreading rhizomes is partly responsible for the classification of bamboo as a grass. Bamboo is one of the world's fastest growing plants and under optimum conditions, may grow almost four feet in a day--fast enough that some say you can hear it growing.
