One of my clients has a bamboo grove that has run amock as she never used a root barrier 5 years ago when she planted it .... it's even growing in the neighbour's garden now I'm not sure what type of bamboo it is, but it stands approx ...

... weight (we have up to 20 every day now!) and they have bent the new canes over and they have creased, I have tried to tie them up using canes (bamboo cane to support bamboo canes!! :roll: ) as they are very soft but the Sparrows are still damaging them. Anyone else have this problem?

... Going to give it the yearly stain tomorrow, and its full of blutty bamboo leaves, everywhere, and most irritatingly wedged between the decks. The hoover got most of them out, but i'm sick of the constant brushing and ...

What's the name of that very low growing, very large leaved boo? You know, the nightmare one. Is it something palmatum?

Around the time I planted this i'd bought, Nitida Great Wall, Asian wonder (scabrida), and Murielae, although there was another purchase I cant recall :lol: icon_scratch Any ideas which one it is? It have a super lush rich green colour, which in certain lights almost pops out at you, very vivid. htt...

I think it's bisetti, I don't think Bamboos get bigger than this in the UK it must have been over 20feet tall.

A load of my new Fergasia Robusta Campbell bamboo culms are growing up into my overhead lilac tree branch, I quite like the effect of the enclosure it gives the entrance and exit to the upper garden, but I don't want to restrict/damage the new ...

Sure I read on here that once the end of season is reached the existing culms no longer put any new growth on and next year its all about the new culms from the ground? icon_scratch icon_scratch My Fargesia jiuzhaigou and Fargesia robusta Pingwu are both re-leafing last years culms which were late i...

I was given a clump of black bamboo but it has gone brown. Its had plenty of rain but no new growth. Is this type a fussy one to transplant?

Shall I cut back and feed.

Hi
I'm trying to establish a collection, got 25 different types maybe.

I'm looking to aquire some black bamboo for the rear of my garden. I've checked a few websites and ebay, but B&Qs seem the best value so far. £40 for some about 2m + with about 5/6 canes. Has anyone got any experience with this item? Thanks Steve

Never seen this before, its on my Robusta Campbell, is it just a large root, or is it a culm that was surfacing hit another culm perhaps then went under again to resurface elsewhere icon_scratch icon_scratch http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c400/pault123/2012canter/20130507_190703.jpg http://i31.ph...

As you can see in the pics i'm pruning any new culms which are coming up under my kerbstone on the top of my wall, the problem is there still growing! Is this just temporary, or is there some kind of technique properly terminate a new culm ? http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c400/pault123/2012canter...

little worried how close this bamboo is to this schefflera
how will things go as it get bigger?

will the bamboo kill off the scheffy or just grow around it?
