This morning Boonthammee Bamboo Garden have posted up some fresh seeds of Pleioblastus fortune. I'm going to get some for my front garden as it is not a large area and this boo stays small...The leaves look amazing. Worth getting in touch with them if your after a small boo

At what point should I transfer the seeds that have sprouted to poly pots?. Another 4 have sprouted over night

Well my seeds arrived on Tuesday 22nd so I put 20 straight into propagator at 28'c with 80% humidity and within 2 days I have atleast 6 sprouting. That I think is really good for such a short period of time. Here are a few pictures. Sorry if it is boring but I enjoy growing from seed and watching de...

Seeds can be a problem, you never know if you really got Borinda or not. Buying already established plant is also going to give you larger boo much sooner. I have seen some Borinda Fungosa for sale on Tropical Britain Uk web site for quite cheap....little over 10 uk pounds...70cm tall I may get some

About Borinda. They look fabulous (my opinion :)) and can get quite large in appropriate climate. I have a 4 year old seedling that is around 4m tall, perhaps taller. Leaves are thin and a bit hairy, nothing beats the movement of those leaves in the light breeze. They flutter like none of my other ...

Just had an email from Boonthammee Bamboo Garden in Thailand with some images of my fresh Bambusa Tulda seeds that are being shipped tomorrow. This will be my first attempt at growing any Bambusa so if you guys who have successfully done so have any tips then please feel free to share.

As Otatea acuminate is a clumper you should not need a barrier....Also as they can grow over 7 meters tall you will need to space them atleast 1.5 meters apart atleast...and also about .5-1 meter away from fence to allow spread. Others with more experience with this particular boo will prob help you...

I have seen the pictures. I can wait there is no rush....I thought it might have been due to language....was going to ask my Thai friend to email for me

Well I placed an order for seeds...however I have had no reply nor is there a paypal email for me to pay it...I have stated in the email all info they requested yet still nothing...I'm guessing the language barrier is the problem.

Thank you for your reply KhunDieter I have sent request from facebook and also a pm

Just came upon this site http://thai-bamboo-seeds.blogspot.co.uk/. They have a number of germination proved seeds for various bamboo's......The seeds come from Boonthammee Bamboo Garden in Thailand. I'm thinking of taking the plunge and ordering a few different types. Had anyone here ordered from Bo...

Nice to have it in English....other docu's I have found about bamboo are either in Mandarin or Thai. Thanks for the share

Go out and have a look........clear dead sheaves and leaves and see if you can see any new shoots if not I would go ahead and do divisions(obviously if the root ball like a viable division

I asked the same question mate....between now and fall is a good time..however after checking my Fargasia Wolong it is still shooting so if I want shoots to live I best leave it.....Are yours shooting or have they finished?
