Does anyone have a mail order source for D. Sinicus? I would need it sent to McAllen Texas.

Thanks

I talked to someone that said Robert Sapporito has it, but it is not listed on his website. You might want to give him a call.

Let me know when the best time to visit is Jeff. I want to take a trip down your way next. Any assistance on travel plans would also be helpful.

I lost one due to flooding last year, but another one in the ground survived... and I also took a cutting from the original and it is doing great... already in a 78 gallon pot.

Chuck got his from me... :lol:

I am sure if Chuck is selling it, you can't go wrong there. Chuck has some very nice bamboo. I just didn't know if he was selling it yet.

I got mine from R. Saporito about 1.5 years ago. It's doing ok but hasn't "jumped" up in size yet.
Just give him a call and he can make one for you. (It's called Tropical Bamboo).
