To me , the best thing about gardening is sharing plants. I was raised in a family that did not let anyone leave a visit without sending something home with them, so my garden has helped me continue that tradition. I always have something to share, either cut flowers, starts of plants or fresh fruits. My Dad's great sister Rachel shared this Bamboo with me when I moved to Kentucky. When ever I look at it I remember her house in Columbus. Thank you Rachel, it is beautiful this year!
I been trying to find out if I could grow bamboo in Kentucky. When would I plant it. I have the plants rooted but don't know what to do with them. What part of Ky. do you live in?

Hi Queemmothermamaw, I successfully grow several varieties of Bamboo and I live about 30 miles east of Louisville towards Lexington. I would be glad to give you starts if you are close.
ReplyDeleteI would go ahead and plant them now or early in the Spring. They have alway grown well for me when I plant them now.
