bamboo

My N.gracilis has been growing very well for the last two years. In fact, last week I even took some cuttings from it; such was its fast growth. Today, when I checked the plant, it was close to dead. There were some green areas left but these were near the newer growth. Then I saw a big snail...

Hey guys, My girlfriend's father has a growing interest in bamboo, and would like to grow some this upcoming season. I'm trying to help him out, and the first thing I have to do is figure out which species would be the perfect ones. We live in New York, grow zone 6/7. He'd like something that...

I went into Target today on lunch and went to their limited houseplant section. Usually there's wanna be bonzai and green capped lucky bamboo. With your assortment of unlabeled generic tropical folliage and a few bromeliads of course. Well, to my surprise I saw Sarracenia, apparently 'Judith...

Hey all, I just became the proud new owner of a Bamboo Shrimp. And boy do the little guppies want it to be food. Good thing he's so much bigger than their brine shrimp, though I do feel bad feeding the guppies extremely distant cousins of the bamboo. Anything special I should know or may want...

Thanks to Tony, I now have some new plants!! The new guys are N. lowii, N. ampullaria, N. gracilis, D. nitidula ssp. nitidula, and VFT 'Pink Venus'. I have a question about the dews: The tray system is ok, right? And since they are flowering that means that to them it is spring, or winter ...

I work at a home decor/garden shop... White Rose... We got this new novelty plant in... There are three differnet types of plants, but all of them have the same idea. They are the small plants (Money tree, lucky bamboo and some other one... a palm of some sort, I think) in a some "artificial...

I been looking for some bamboo, to use as a decorative in my terrarium, anyways if anyone can tell me where I can give living bamboo, and not that lucky bamboo it will be a lot of help. bamboo looks so pretty =D

the cactus would not be used to get high fyi. I was wondering if anyone had a San Pedro Cactus. Or if they had and Bamboo rhizome cuttings or shoots of a bamboo with a wide diameter, really tall, sturdy, and really green. I could trade some stuff like t-shirts or cd cases, or cokes for it.

Hello, Do any of you grow any Bonsai plants, or bamboo?
