Has Phyllostachys nigra set seed recently?
 

Hi group,

Does anyone know if Phyllostachys nigra has
recently produced seed?
Worldwide?
In the UK a mail order company is offering cell
grown P.nigra and I wondered if they were seed or
tc grown...I havn't asked them yet! I would like
some advanced info before I make a call.

Any help appreciated.

Regards

For those that are interested.

In the UK a mail order company is offering cell
grown P.nigra and I wondered if they were seed or
tc grown..................

The company informs me that the 'cell grown'
plants are rhizome propagations from field grown
plants in China. So nothing new there then!

Can breath x 3 sighs of relief that my P.nigra is
not about to flower.
Cross out tc and cuttings too from the book.
Thanks for the worldwide info help.

Zookeeper hope the beauty of the snow makes up for
the cold.

I'm interested. Who is the company, and how much do they cost ?

I've had most luck with P. Aureosulcata spectabilis, less with
P. Nigra and none with P. Pubescens when it came to taking rhizome
cuttings.

I've bought a fair number of plants from the Palm Centre (in Ham)
and I understand that they have a sale until February.

-- Central Florida -- I've got P. nigra that was planted in the wrong place
and I regularly pull out (and either give to friends, throw away or replant
into pots) rhizomes that are emerging in my azalea or citrus gardens.
They're available to anyone that wants them --

I'd love to have a few new starts but Florida is SO far away! ;-j
