Chuck has finally fulfilled his bamboo dreams today. After visiting about 5 nurseries, we went back to Ji Mei and bought 4 bamboo plants for $300+ including delivery, planting charges and soil; and after discount from my Auntie's corporate member account. That was quite reasonable as we were quoted $600 at another nursery - but of course their stone bamboos there were a little bit nicer.
The plants are going to be delivered on Thursday, so I'll put up some photos then.
I found this website on bamboo care and maintenance as we're both noobs to this. Tropical Bamboo Nursery
The bamboo is a symbol of long life, strength and versatility for many cultures of the world. Unraveling its mysteries is a continuing source of enjoyment. When you know how to grow bamboo, you’ll find that your love for the plant grows as fast as your bamboo does!
I feel so excited about the bamboo. I'm growing bamboos!
