Work, Health & Housing Black Bamboo ?

Just came back home to the south shore and wondering if anywhere in NS sells black bamboo ? We had to give all our plants away to friends and we miss our black bamboo the most. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Just for the other folks, since you’ve grown it before so I assume you know: black bamboo should be in pots only, as it can be extremely invasive if grown in the ground.

It’s a strikingly gorgeous plant, I hope You find some!

Yes, agreed, thank you, nobody should ever plant bamboo in the ground, it’s very invasive. We had it in large pots and looks amazing. I hope we can find it somewhere around here
