Re: Not AGAIN! Phyllostacys Nigra flowering again.

Re: Is everyone’s Phyllostachys Nigra Flowering?

Fredgpops, one of Phyllostachys nigra 'Henon' sprouted and is now in a pot. It hardly shot this spring, I hope it grows next year. It is just a regular green bamboo though, no special features yet.
None of other seeds germinated.

Re: Graceful Bamboo Flowering

Re: Graceful Bamboo Flowering

... I have one gracilis flowered this year. It's a pretty big plant, maybey 150-200 shoots? A little less than half flowered. I have a billion seeds. What do I need to do with the seeds to keep them so they are good to plant in the future? My guess would be to collect the seeds from the culms ...
