I add a lot of top soil around my bamboos.

If only because the rhizomes sometimes emerge
from the ground, in which case I add a layer of
good top soil to bury them again.

I also mulch the ground around and between the
culms a good deal.

Would it be effective to also add some fertilizer
in order to stimulate future and further growth
(spread, height and diameter)?

I use Ringers Lawn Restore.


If so which one?

BTW why do the rhizomes not always stay
underground?

It is a mystery.


Thanks.
