Rhizomes
Yea, within a week one planter shot up a 1 foot culm,,, branched out nicely too. The other did nothing... but peeked under the mulch and soil and the roots look great, so hoping they fire off come springtime.

CJ,
If you still want some send me your addy again. I thought I had it, but could not find. Probably going to dig again soon. Should be able to send a few larger rhizome pieces and possibly ones with culms attached such as in the picture of my "Getting ready for Spring!!!!" posting. Should be less than $20 to send via horseback. LMK

Sounds good. I still have the one holding on...looks half alive, half hit by a truck though The other 2 foot rhizome I planted did nothing...wonder if its dead? Should I dig it up and look? What exactly am I looking for once I dig it up anyways? will it look odviously alive or dead? The other rhizome that quickly shot up a culm is the one that looks pretty tattered. But stil signs of life.
Thanks
CJ

I've decided to dig up a good bit of Yellow Groove before it gets too big. Gonna contain it to make room for others. Would be able to send divisions the size of typical 2 gallon (probably more rhizomes than culms since they're in the ground).
Looking for other cold hardy Phyllostachys like nuda, dulcis, rubromarginata or other aureosulcata cultivars or???. Also looking for Fargesias other than robusta and possibly more ornamentals that would do well inside without a huge pot.
....send me your division (weather permitting for tropicals) and I will send an adequate amount in return. would like larger divisions if possible and would send multiple smaller divisions back at cha.
Thanks,

CJ,
I should, but we have to wait a few weeks until after shooting season. Keep a B.B. for me.

Sorry to poke me snout in, but if you're talking about bare rhizomes, after shooting is not a good time, you should include an attached culm.
I suspect that you already knew this and I am stating the obvious

I have butchered my YG pretty hard to make room for others, and in fact it may go completely if I get my hands on some spectabilis. At the very least I want to remove some more, and after it's mostly done shooting, I'll send out young divisions. I can't see there being any bare or almost bare rhizomes in a week or two.
Good point to make though Brad.
