Dick G here!

Any banboo enthusiasts here yet?

My potted/containerized boo is getting ready to shoot, I think...in fact one of them (Spectabilis in a 3-gal container has one lone shoot that appeared coupla days ago and is now close to 3’ tall!) and I expect that the others will be not far behind.

Best to all...

I have somewhat an amusing/true story about bamboo if you feel like a laugh?

As a kid I was climbing in the bamboo to get on top of the garage.

Did you know bamboo is a favorite place for yellow jackets to build their nest?

Lots of nest.

Have you ever tried to get out of bamboo with yellow jackets stinging the crap out of you?

I don’t care if I ever see another bamboo plant.
