Tricked into thinking you’re getting real bamboo when it’s actually just some cheap crappy imitation (think, using dried marsh-grass blades or cattail leaves for creating a basket, lamp-shade, or mat/curtain, instead of da genuine natural-plastic woven slats).
I hired a fly-by-night landscaper to plant a “tubular grass” fringe around my house, but the lyin’ shyster just stuck in a weedy thicket of Japanese knotweed --- I got seriously bamboo-zled on THAT deal!
