NEW BAMBOO SPROUT ATTEMPT OCT 23 2016
Here are eight new pots eith our latest bamboo sprouting attempt fully underway (hint: it's the row with blue tags).

This time we took cuttings from a stalk of Emerald bamboo between the 4th and 12th nodes. Each cutting had approximately three inches of cane on either side of the node. Mary trimmed the outgrowth so a single strand stuck out above the soil (except on one which is completely buried).

We are excited to crack the code on sprouting bamboo, it's supposed to be easy but so far we only have two successes to point to, fortunatel Spike and Baby-Baby have both launched new larger canes which indicates they're healthy and happy.
