Hello,

A friend of mine has some beautiful, tall bamboo at the house he is
currently renting in Dallas, and I want to plant some of it in my
yard. But neither one of us know how you get bamboo started from
existing plants. He just lives there (didn't plant it himself) and I
never had bamboo before. I heard you can chop a small stalk and go
from there, but how exactly? How do you cut it? Between nodes, I
assume, but then what? Does it go into the water or straight in the
ground? Vertically or horizontally? Thanks.
