Amateur bamboo growing thread (pics)

Post by I_am_Ian »

Let's collect pictures of amateur bamboo gardening that looks impressive here in this thread. Large bamboo in small yards or around homes and personal gardens. No big time stuff just the amateur enthusiast who have nice bamboo at home.

Sure, but why? They are right side up for me.

They need a rotation to the right whether clicked or not here.

To me, they are now on their side.

EDIT: fixed pics.

Found another impressive clump in Berkeley, CA. I think this town may be the bamboo capital of America. Many people grow it here. The whole town seems to be into gardening.

19 March photos are still on their sides but opposite to the previous ones. Your last post are on their sides like the latter. Clicking does not help here.

And hopefully I've solved my image rotation problem.

Yup, all pix right way up along with me now.

Other people are having the same problem. Any idea what you had done wrong if anything? And how you fixed it.

Originally I was uploading pics to this forum and now I've uploaded them to photobucket and just embedded a link instead.

Also note that it's difficult to take a picture in Berkeley without a Prius in the frame somewhere.
