Question about Bamboo

[Axeler137]

Can you put bamboo right next to each other? Or do they need a gap in between?
Also, can bamboo be next to buildings/pwps/etc?

Bamboo still follows the one space rule that trees do. I read somewhere that you could plant it right next to other bamboo, but that has not been my experience, and I've planted a lot of bamboo.

Alright thanks! Just wanted to make sure before I plant it and half of them die.

Yeah I just tried recently to plant them all next to eachother and every other one died

Eventually, you'll still be knee deep in bamboo shoots, even if half of them die. And of course you can plant bushes right next to bamboo, and vice versa, just as long as there's adequate space (not on the edge of water or a cliff).

Yeah, but if you TT I highly suggest you place patterns around each stalk. Unless you want to feel like you're in a forest in China

Haha. I bet they reproduce fast!
Of course when I want to put them around a bench, they don't fit correctly around... I'll have to figure something out.
