It depends on what kind of containment you require. If you need to contain the roots you have to install a rhizome barrier of some kind. But the rhizomes cant extend further than about 20 feet (6 meters) from a mature culm/stalk and the new shoots can be kicked or mowed so you can also contain it that way. I mean that way it can never leave its original area until you stop mowing or kicking the new shoots which only tries to come up twice a year afaik.
