Santa Ana Bamboo Sunset

In Southern California we have dry, hot winds that create some interesting atmospheric conditions for sunset. Here is a photo we took of our bamboo garden silhouetted against our California sunset sky.

If you live in an area that receives dry, hot winds, please remember to water your bamboo leaves and soak the ground around it to prevent leaf curl on days like this.

Chusqea Fireworks!

Chusquea pitteriThe clumpers in our bamboo garden have begun to shoot! This is a common phenomenon for this time of year. One of our most striking shooting bamboo is the Chusquea pitteri. Once the new shoots begin to branch, the new branchlets burst out like fireworks.

Heat Wave

Please be sure to give your bamboo special attention during this time of year, as many parts of the country are experiencing record highs. Please soak the ground around your bamboo plant on a daily basis when the temperatures rise above 90 and spray the leaves with water.

If you have recently purchased from our online store, we may be placing your order on hold until the weather cools down. If you have any questions, please reply to the confirmation e-mail you received when you placed your order. If you have lost your confirmation, please use our contact form.

Remember that if you order during this time of year, your plant may pass through hot parts of the country on a delivery truck or train. Please consider having us hold your order for a later ship date if you order in the Summer. There is a place on our checkout form to put a “hold until” date.

Planting the Garden

Our team at Bamboo Headquarters is working hard to plant our display garden with rare and unusual bamboo. This week we have been working on transplanting a Bambusa nana to a more viewable part of the garden.
