Hi everyone,
I have just registered,have been hanging around in the GW forum for a 18 months or so,and have enjoyed the pics on this site.
I'm in Australia and grow mainly clumpers.
I look forward to chatting with you all.

welcome
Richard, nice to 'meet' you and welcome to the forum. I don't know how many tropical clumper growers we have on here yet as the forum is in its infancy. I suspect that more will start to speak up but you may not see a lot of replies to your posts such as the black clumper of choice one you posted, until folks with that experience start to speak up.
Personally, with winters that often see -25C the tropicals are pot plants for me and I'm getting tired of dragging the monsters in and out! Our summers reach 35C but we have frost danger until early May and then starting in early October so the tropicals get only about 5 months of outdoors.
Anyway, glad to have you here!

Hello Richard and welcome "to the other side...lol" If you have been hangin in the GW then you know most of the people in here already. I don't know if the tropical clumper people have moved over here yet (i bellieve there are a few) so you might be the authority....I'm relatively new to growing bamboo but just wanted to welcome you. if you have pics to share i'm sure they will be welcome. I'm guessing but i think i am as far away from you as one can get....maybe novia scotia would be more accurate but ...well welcome just the same....
