Mar 26, Dividing Bamboo in Spring

Mon, 26 Mar 2012 12:36:18 GMT

I published three articles about dividing bamboo plants a while ago that gave tips on how you can divide bamboo as a method of splitting the plants, re potting if they have outgrown their containers, or for propagation of new bamboo.

This bamboo blog post is a reminder for you if you want to divide your bamboo. This is a good time for those living in the northern hemisphere to get this job done before summer. Do not leave it for too long into the growing season before carrying out the process because you may damage new shoots and it is difficult to take enough care of dividing a plant when it is putting forth new growth.

Have a look at my tips

Bamboo Division
Dividing Container Bamboo
Dividing Clumping Bamboo

Basically, these articles look at dividing bamboo that is in the ground or in containers, clumping species, or you can apply the same method to running bamboo.
