How bad does this stuff spread?  The reason I ask is I stumbled on a big patch of it today and am considering possibly transplanting some.  Of course, since I know where to find it I may be just as well to go there if I need more, but the idea of walking out my back door to cut arrow shafts is appealing.  I'm a typical suburbanite with 0.6 acres of land, and I don't want it to spread all over my neighbor's land (well, maybe if he doesn't make his dog shut the hell up), but I do have an area across the back property line that was an old fence row and is kind of a waste area now.

Pat B:
How big was the patch you found. It will spread at least that much!  ;D

jonathan creason:
 ;D Good point, Pat.  I wonder how long it took to get that big?  I'll probably just go there and cut some culms every-once-in-a-while, but it would be nice not to have to climb through a dang briar thicket to cut them.

mullet:
 I just killed all mine with Round-Up. It was sending runners up everywhere. I hope the ones make it that are coming up in my neighbors yard, now.

Doesn't sound like it'll be worth it at all.  Oh well, the place I found them is pretty secluded so I can slip in there a few times a year to cut culms.
