Need help with IDs of some new arrivals

Post by pokenei »

I got these from Steve along with Propinqua (not shown) but the smaller ones have been mixed up and I need to sort them out.

Each photo will have a brief description.

This one is a runner.  It has one new half-inch thick rhizome about 2 inches long.

This is the 2nd largest plant in the shipment.  A runner with plenty of long quarter inch rhizomes.

One more photo which has 3 different bamboos planted.

The center one (B) was accidentally and completely buried in soggy ground for a day when I planted F and E together thinking they're one plant.

A, C, and D came in the same bag.

A= F Nitida
B= Pleo Distichus
C= F Rufa
D= P Dulcis
E= Sh Kumasaca
F= Moso division

The fargesias should probably start out in a shady spot for a while, while everything else should be fine in the full sun. The dulcis definitely looks a lot lighter and pretty worn out, maybe because it was pushing a rhizome through the shipping process.

There might also be vines with heart shaped leaves coming out of the Dulcis root ball because there were immature air potatoes stuck in there, but I'm not sure if they are big enough to be viable, but there's a chance.

Ok thanks Steve. I thought Moso was the Dulcis and vise versa.
