Default Newbe: Bamboo Question, Help

Hi,

Sorry if this has been asked befo

I have a black caned bamboo (sorry not sure which type) which is about
15 feet high which I have grown in a large pot.

I have noticed that all the leaves have turned brown and some have
curled up in the last week. None of the leaves have fallen off.

I live in the UK and we have had three or four minor frosts recently
plus no rain for at least a week (very unusual for the UK!

Is it dead or will it come back?

All my other Bamboo's seem to be ok.

Many thanks for any advice,

Bob

Water the bamboo and spray it with water.

The leaves curl up to reduce loss of water when under stress.

My bamboo has come back after some of the leaves have turned brown.

Good luck

Richard
