Bamboo

I recently removed a whole load of bamboo from my garden and managed to get almost everything out except some of the adventitious roots. 
Can new bamboo grow from these roots? 
Any help would be appreciated

    They will...just keep removing as you see them grow. Will take a while but easy enough to spot any growth.

    Yes Bamboo can grow from the roots. Get some SBK stump or brushwood killer to treat the remaining roots and then you should be free of it. You may have to treat a few times
