Bambusa Textilis 'Kanapaha' (Wong Chuk or Royal Bamboo)

I've got a 15gal sized clump I'd like to trade for a Bambusa Textilis 'Gracilis' (Slender Weavers)
or Bambusa sp. Richard Waldron (Patio Bamboo)

Thanks.

Re: How do you keep squirrels and other wildlife from shoots

No special trips for hot peppers for squirrels for me.
After the last few years, I've noticed my local squirrel population down considerably...
I have no problem takin' the tree rats out.

Re: How do you keep squirrels and other wildlife from shoots

Re: White Clumping Powder - or bugs?

You've got the idea with the systemic, although I'd go with a spray instead of granule... That aways you can directly apply to the effected areas...

Re: Green Panda withering in intense heat

OMG. :roll: You all are amusing. First of all... When I say put the garbage bag over the plant for a little while, I mean say, couple hours during the day when the suns beatin' down on it the hardest. - Just to relive the sunburn stress issue.

Re: Green Panda withering in intense heat
