Bamboo growth
P. aurea going well (in the U.K.).
Can anyone tell me if the canes get thicker with age or are the new canes the size they are as they emerge and grow, for life ? TIA

TIA What you see is what you get, once the canes are up that is as thick as they are going to be. Next years canes might be larger coming out of the ground if the bamboo did well or smaller if it was starved or stressed. What will happen over the next couple of years is that the canes will become more woody and strong up to about the 5 yr point and then get old and die of at the 7 or 8 yr point. |
