I also have Phyllostachys aureosulcata. Lots and lots, could send you a large clump. I would love your black bamboo, did a trade for it last year and ended up with more yellow groove. I tell ya.

sending you an e-mail. thanks!

Hi again, Mopower, I should point out that the Hotshot No-Pest Strips contain 18.6% Dichlorvos (O,O-dimethyl O-(2,2-dichlorovinyl) phosphate) or DDVP for short, which is a nerve poison and possible carcinogen. Incidentally, it is not an insect repellent, as it is described on the Amazon website. This strip is apparently very similar to the Shell No-Pest Strip, which was pulled from the market in the United States many years ago. Actually, I am surprised that the government is allowing these Hotshot No-Pest Strips to be sold in the U.S. And I am disappointed that Amazon is mislabeling them. And I wouldn't want to breathe the vapor from one. So, I am retracting that No-Pest Strip recommendation. I have wasps in my garage, and I think I will let them be. ZM

Of course I'm gaining a voracious appetite for oaks as Zsolt well knows. Folks I'll say it again, if you want a truly enjoyable and amazing experience, check out the entire album of the Sagalassos expedition. All are here Dax
