Hello everyone, i require some help regarding some bamboo i have recently planted at the front of my house. A mate of mine was going to get rid of the bamboo at the back of his house to make way for a new garage. It was too beautiful to destroy, so i said i'd take it off his hands. I removed the the bamboo, put it in my van and transported it to my house. I dug a bed out, planted the bamboo and filled the area with compost and fertilizer.

I have supported the canes with pipe clips for the time being, until they establish themselves. The bamboo ranges from 5-9 foot tall. The bamboo was vibrant green when i bedded it, but over the course of the last three days the leaves have started turning a yellowy brown.

I am now getting worried as the last thing i want to do is damage the bamboo, it looks great at the front of the house. My kids love it, the way it starts to droop from about 5 foot up and sways in the wind. From a little bit of research i think it is yin yang bamboo. I will upload or post a link to a picture of it so that hopefully someone can point me in the right direction. Is it usual for the leaves to turn?, the bamboo was out of the ground between the transfer, for about an hour.

Thanks in advance to anyone who tries to help or offers any advice, it would be greatly appreciated. By the way, i am a total novice in terms of gardening but am eager to learn.
