This Month most asked question






This month most asked question? 

When is the best time to plant bamboo?

 You can plant bamboo any time of the year. Planting bamboo in the warmer months will need more frequent watering and plenty of mulch to keep your  bamboo plant nice and cool.Planting bamboo in the cooler months has an advantage as bamboo will not need frequent watering but still keep moist and mulch to keep the warmth in.Another advantage is your bamboo plants will have a longer time to develop strong roots.A good solid root system is what enables bamboo to send out bigger and tall canes the following summer.

Bamboo for the month



Bambusa multiplex cv. Alphonse Karr (Alphonse Karr Bamboo) would have to be one of the fastest growing medium bamboo.
We planted these in December 2007 and as you can see by the latest shots it is a lush dense living screen.
It is a very hardy bamboo able to handle temperatures to minus -12⁰
green leaves. Last winter the area was totally under water for four weeks and it didn't seem to faze the bamboo at all.
Having said that bamboo does not like wet feet for long periods. 
This area was heavy clay soil so some preparation was needed.When planting any bamboo always dig twice the pot size and back fill with organic soil.
