Can 8 foot tall Black Bamboo be successfully
grown in pots?

=====================================


Yes it can and will thrive if you pay attention to watering and feeding.
Use a large pot -even for a small plant and ensure good drainage but never
allow the plant to dry out. Feed regularly with a high nitrogen fertiliser
and the occasional balanced feed.
