Bamboo growing huge center shoot
If it's a flower spike, say goodnight. Bamboo grows and blooms. It could take
a lifetime to flower, but when it does it dies promptly after.
This happened a while back in Dallas. All of the golden bamboo all around town
decided to bloom and tons and tons of bamboo was dead all over the place.
If it's a spike of more bamboo foliage, I wouldn't worry.

My (clumping) bamboo is doing well, with
one curious exception. There is a single shoot from the
middle growing straight up, high, high, high. Have never had
bamboo before, so should I be pleased? alarmed?
TIA
