Growing Bamboo
Generally easy to grow, bamboo can be propagated by dividing existing clumps. Bamboo spreads naturally by underground rhizomes, so the easiest approach is to remove young new shoots complete with roots from the outside of the clump. Many growers will actually remove some slightly oder growth with the new growth as this older growth will have a better root system leading to faster growth.
Remember that Bamboo likes a well drained soil, but plenty of water, so when planting out make sure that you water in well and then water regularly until established. Applying fertiliser will stimulate growth and a fertiliser with a high nitrogen percentage (look for N.P.K on the packaging) will be useful once the plants have had time to settle in.
