What type of bamboo is this?


Phyllostachys bissetii on Cape Cod, MA (Zone 6). I figured it would be hard
to kill once established, but thought it might be over-sensitive so soon
after planting. I will water with wild abandon!

I have some clumping bamboo that I keep very wet, sometimes even in
standing water. It is very hot here in the summer time so I tend to
overwater the tropicals to try to be on the safe side. They seem to
love it.

Once again, it is hard to kill bamboo, many have tried :-)
