My P Aurea bamboo have been in the ground 90 days after transplant. After a lot of snow and Ice, they were beat over the winter. Now they are dropping a lot of leaves and curling leaves. I do have 3 new shoots, one about a foot high. does this leaf look like too much water, too little water? A few new leaves but not much yet. Thanks for the thoughts

Hard to tell anything from picture of detached leaf, but suspect your older growth was cold damaged. It may refoliate if it was not too cold.

Thank you! recently since this we had 36 hours of gale force wind on the Olympic coast. It really burnt the leaves as sand was blowing too. am not sure if I should just hope for recovery or something else.
