Look how big bamboo can get in one summer!

A customer who bought two different types of clumping bamboo in May wrote to say how well their bamboo is growing:



Aloha Sherry and Ralph – Six months ago I bought a 30 gallon Textilis Mutabilis from your amazing collection. This Emerald has generated 26 new canes already. I enriched the planting bed with 30 bags of Black Kow, peat and organic soils mixed together,fertilized, plus watered faithfully every morning before work.


The two little sisters are Textilis Gracilis (Graceful); these two were only 3 gallon specimens and have produced 17 new canes each in the five month interval since they were planted!


My neighbors are thrilled with the unique tropical beauty of these upright, tight clumpers in our typically small suburban lawns. I’m looking forward to the privacy screen, shade and windblock/ noise barrier this living fence will create.


Thanks for your informative web site and blog. Kind regards, Freddy


After planting in May – One Emerald on the left with two Gracefuls to the right
