Bamboo Exchange

HAVE: Many sizes of B.V Baby Buddahs to trade ;-)

15 years ago

Hello all, I am planning to divide about 7 5-15 gallon planters of Buddah. Anyone interested in some...let me know now and I'll start dividing and plantering them up to stabilize and will ship once they are stable. Or if interested in large size now... let me know and i can make arrangements to get them out too. Looking for anything zone 7 friendly or worth the effort to bring inside in the cold. Here are a few recent pics.

Thanks and let me know

Invasive Buddah's Belly Bamboo
Q
Comments (7)
gcbunnell - Noninvasive is a relative term. Invasive is when a new shoot pops up 30 feet away. :) If someone told you the ROOTS were noninvasive they may have been thinking or speaking in terms of the RHIZOMES rather than the actual roots. Presuming you have Bambusa ventricosa (since you are in 8b) this is a fairly large bamboo (50+ ft tall), especially when it stops bellying. The clump will continue to get larger and larger in diameter as the plant gets older. You can cull the new shoots that come up where you do not want them but eventually you will need to renew the center. Just like a tree with that much leaf area to support, a large bamboo requires an extensive root system to supply water and nutrients. Fredgpops has some good suggestions. The roots you encounter should be more fibrous than thick and woody, and so you may be able to cut though them with a sawzall or even a long sharp thin (sharpshooter type) shovel (or both) presuming your soil is not rocky. All you need to do is cut the roots not necessarily trench the area. If you circle the clump too closely, you may cut off the plant's water supply and kill it. In my experience Bambusas do not recover from dehydration as well as some other species. It may be better to just circle the area and kill the roots where you want to plant a new plant and water well until the new plant is established. If the new culm is 3 feet away from the nearest other culm in the main clump then in my experience that would be very unusual for a B. v. unless perhaps you have been culling the new shoots as they come up on that branch of the rhizomes. It may be that your Bambusa ventricosa has gotten too large for where you want to grow it and you should consider severely dividing the clump to make it smaller and moving it. This should set it back again for a number of years. As Fredgpops indicated you may be able to find someone who would do this free for the remainder of the plant. Check with your local ABS Chapter. If you are lucky you may find a nursery/bamboo seller willing to pay you a nominal amount for the plants they remove. Good Luck Mike McG near Brenham TX

Hey C J it's jeff again would you be interested in some arundinaria gigantea(tall)species. If so I could throw that in when I send you your aureosulcata. For the buddah's belly. If you think that's a fair trade. However I still want the nigra. Let me know if this sounds good to you. Thanks jeff.gabelman@yahoo.com or jeff@gabelmansgardens.com

Hello, I would like to try to grow this bamboo, can it be brought inside in buckets, does it like water. I have a couple kinds of Elephant ears, they are green. one is really big, the other kind is smaller. I have seeds for saucer hibiscus, the flowers are closed to 7 inches across, they maybe grow better down there, they are cold hardy though, so they will come back every year. I also have a few,ferns, and jack in the pulpits, as well as a variety of flower bulbs

Hi, yes I do... they will need to come indoors once it gets down to low 40s because they will suffer in the cold. What size plant were you interested in? Do some searching on care of this Boo and make sure its what you want.
Thanks
CJ
