Newly planted bambusa lako
I recently planted three young Bambusa Lako (three to five culm, about 10ft) and
I'm wondering how long they should take to recover from the shock. It's been a month now, and they're still looking very ragged and dropping leaves. The one that was looking good turned orange (leaves, not the culms) and eventually dropped most of the leaves. Will it recover, and how long will it take? How big might it be by summer (it's on the south side of the house). Rick DeBay P.S. they may be from TropicalBamboo.com if that makes a difference. |

Just mulch heavily and keep the moisture level up, if it looks dead, just keep tending it. It will pop back in its own good time. I planted some Bambusa Vulgaris "Wamin" from a great looking large division. It dropped 75% of its leaves and all but 2 of the culms died. During shooting season it put up two nice sized shoots and leafed out like crazy. Bamboo often looks dead, especially after a transplant, it rarely actually dies. Chris |
