Merci, Philippe.

And for those whose French is a little rusty, you can use Google Translate:

Congratulations Phillipe! This bamboo heaven you're trying to establish is looking better every time you visit it, I'm sure of that. I'm from Slovenia and if (when) I decide to travel anywhere near Rome, I won't be able to resist visiting your Elemento Bambù.

Keep up the great work! It seems everything goes according to plans.

The image "bamboo_099" is my favorite! Which species are doing the best, and what size are they now?

Nice to see the progress after three years!

Awesome! I loved the pictures and videos on your youtube page seeing the transformation. It was nice to see vacant, barren land transformed with the bamboos. I have never liked barren land (prior to being hooked on bamboo), I have always like well treed lush areas. However now after falling in love with bamboo I think it would be neat to buy a large flat and empty piece of property and then truck in huge mounds of dirt and plant bamboos!
