Phyllostachys propinqua 'Beijing' flowering

[johnw]

Phyllostachys propinqua 'Beijing' sent up 2 very large culms this past Spring and all culms have just came into full flower. They appear to be quite unlike the healthy & lusty flowers of the Fargesias that have flowered here in the past, maybe I say this prematurely. I doubt very much they will eventually set seed, plentiful as they may be. The clone can be traced way, way back to Brad's 'Beijing'.

If it set seed, count me in for some seed.
