It's pretty hard to kill bamboo. Yours may look toasted now, but I bet it will be flourishing next year.

I certainly hope so. It's dismal now. Most of it was blown over from the roots, so some could be replanted but most of that didn't do well. Alot of it was simply destroyed. High winds, tall young bamboo in unprotected areas, not a good mix. We had alot of straight line winds. Snapped pine tress in half, uprooted hundred year old oaks. My pecan trees are mostly finished.

One thing about it, it's given me a brand new landscape to deal with. ALOT of sunny areas now. LOL.

It's hard to tell which was the greatest loss, but would have to say losing the Oaks has had the biggest impact. Massive ground cover plantings underneath the oaks is finished.

I've truly got to start over and don't know what to do.

Nully, you know anything about Sago Palms? I'm trying to find out why my fronds are so brown. I'm afraid of losing these, they look bad.
