A customer who bought bamboos from us three years ago returned to pick up four more plants this morning.  A few hours later, I received this email from her:


Hi, Sherry,
Many thanks for all your time this morning, walking me round the various specimens and for all your sage advice on which bamboo to choose. 

I’m attaching a few pictures I just snapped for you to show you my existing Giant Timber and Angel Mist bamboos. Not a bare cane in sight!

When we first bought the Angel Mist about three years ago, I think it was, the children and I had so much fun walking up to the end of the garden every day to see how many new canes had emerged, what diameter they’d be, and how much they’d grown overnight. The second year I gave up looking – I couldn’t keep up!                                

When my husband first mentioned wanting bamboos in the garden a few years ago I was rather ambivalent to the idea, but now I’m a devotee! Thank you for your wonderful showcase, which makes it so much easier to understand the differences between the different types available. I want a grove of that Vivax one day and when we do move I just might have to get a Ying-Yang to go with me!
