Flowering

Post by needmore »

I seem to have the flowering bug follow me, the latest is a bamboo I obtained as H cupreus but I am skeptical of that ID as the branching seems wrong. In any case it is going into full flower. Thus far from memory I've had the following species flower.

Sasa senanensis
Sinbobambusa intermedia
Pl juxianensis
Sasaella aureostriata
Pl fortuneii
Pl shibuyanus Tsuboi
I tesselatus
Alphonse Karr in Hawai'i
Fargesia nitida - 3 forms
Pl pygmaeus
Phy kwangsiensis
A gigantea
Hibanobambusa tranquillans

Had some sporadic flowering on Phy aureosulcata & the Spectabilis form but those were isolated, most of the above died off.
