Phyllostachys shooting for the sky!

[Yorkshire Kris]

No movement on my edulis, vivax or parvifolia. Anyone got new culms emerging?

[jacko]

just spotted my first vivax culm today.

[Yorkshire Kris]

I'll have to have a look at mine when I get home...

My p. nigra is starting to move - very early for up here

[grub]

Haven't had a look around the Boo's yet but young Jack say's the Shanghai 3 is pushing

[Tom2006]

My mature Phyllo nigra has a new shoot emerging. Just the one, but thats better than nothing. My two new ones aren't showing any movement yet, hoping they are just putting down roots before the shoots.

[jacko]

p.nigra and p.aurea 'koi' both on the move

[Yorkshire Kris]

My first shoot of the year...phyllostachys parvafolia

[jacko]

a beauty.i want a parvifolia.

[jezza]

My young nigra has put out two stems, but my spectabilis has shot up 17 new culms so far.

[Yorkshire Kris]

Second shoot on my new parvifolia is now showing! Still nothing on vivax or edulis.

[jacko]

4 on my vivax but they are a bit late this year.dont know the true size of them yet as they are just poking through.

[Yorkshire Kris]

Four shoots on my parvifolia. The first one growing very slowly but around 1.5 cm across.
