Viable seeds you say? any available to a newbie trying to build his bamboo collection?

Rufledt, it is a tropical, and Does not handle cold. Also more seeds than not are not good...sorry. interested in any running boo?

I read somewhere that bambusa multiplex makes a decent indoor plant, which is more what I was going for. I was thinking of going with that or pseudosasa japonica once I get my multi-purpose planter dealy built, but I figured if I could score some seeds (and not like the "nigra" mystery seeds I got) it would be more exciting. On the other hand, I'm always interested in runners
