Hi. I just joined minutes ago. I planted a basjoo last night in my vegetable garden & it looks great from my deck. I also have a small dwarf cavendish sitting on the deck that I'll take in over the winter, & i'm waiting for some bamboo plants to arrive (to be planted next to the house). I'm sure I'll find lots of information here.

hello. i am in Florida and have lots of bananas, bamboo and birds of paradise (large n small)
i just notised you said plant bamboo next to the house , DON'T DO THIS
keep bamboo far away from your house rather its lucky, black or the large moso their roots will break apart your houses foundation
good luck with the plants :)

The bamboo in question is clumping (NOT running) bamboo...two varieties: fargesia robusta & fargesia rufa. I'm fully aware of the destructive properties of running bamboo. Thanks for the concern, though.
