I agree -- any freshly dug plant that you think is dead, leave it in the pot for a few months and see what happens. I received a small sad looking Pleioblastus chino division that appeared to die. All top growth turned dry and brown within a couple weeks of potting it up. But I left it alone, and a month or two later it produced a few new leaves and some small shoots.

I have a Pleioblastus chino 'Murakamiansus' that has looked that way for close to two years. I'm not sure what is up with it. I supect it would do better planted in the ground, but it isn't really supposed to be cold hardy here.

Dan, it topkills but comes back strong every year here, so go ahead and plant it if you are so inclined.

You've talked me into it.

I am flu(like?) for a few days, so someone planted all but one for me yesterday, just in case. Today, I wandered out and the only good looking piece is the only one small timber division that was left unplanted with a good intact rootball. It actually looks like a plant. With functional leaves and everything...... (smiley impaired post).

I wonder what kind of timber boo this could be. Its not aurea, not yellow groove. It was a nice open grove that you could walk through..... of course, they did cut. Owner described it as 40-50 feet, Up to 3"

Can anything else be eliminated from what can be seen here?
