Giant Bamboo Black Asper plants for sale

***Cold and frost tolerant***

Well rooted, individual young plants are being sold here, minimum 1 stems.

Plants are trimmed shorter (20-50cm), roots are carefully wrapped in moist materials, then plants are packaged in boxes and sealed. They can remain in these boxes for 3 weeks and still survive. Bamboo is an extremely tough plant.

This variety is currently shooting.. If possible, plants should be planted into black nursery bags or plastic pots and placed in full shade after arrival, for at least 2 weeks before being planted into their new positions within the garden. This is to minimize the shock of transport, and to speed up the production of new shoots.

Bamboo absorbs 3x more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere than trees, produces 3x more oxygen than trees and grow a lot faster. Birds love bamboo, pests normally leave them alone.

Bamboo plants can be planted in semi shade to full sun, where watering could range from weekly to fortnightly.

Bamboo leaves are more nutritious than lucerne, which make them ideal to feed to worms (worm farms for vermiculture), chickens, livestock and even fish.
