Screening Bamboo
In most cases the Bisset Bamboo is the best choice, closely followed by the Golden Crookstem.
Yellow Groove is also a good choice for screening especially in exposed conditions. Black bamboo works too, but not quite as effectively and as fast as the others mentioned.
The bundle is a great option if you have a larger area to cover.
