Bamboo

See the full Taxonomy of the Bambuseae.

Diversity Around 92 genera and 5,000 species

Bamboo listen(US) (helpĀ·info) is a group of perennial evergreens in the true grass family Poaceae, subfamily Bambusoideae, tribe Bambuseae. Giant bamboos are the largest members of the grass family. In bamboo, the internodal regions of the stem are hollow and the vascular bundles in the cross section are scattered throughout the stem instead of in a cylindrical arrangement. The dicotyledonous woody xylem is also absent. The absence of secondary growth wood causes the stems of monocots, even of palms and large bamboos, to be columnar rather than tapering.

Bamboos are some of the quickest growing plants in the world, as some species have been recorded as growing up to 100 cm (39 in) within a 24 hour period due to a unique rhizome-dependent system. Bamboos are of notable economic and cultural significance in South Asia, South East Asia and East Asia, being used for building materials, as a food source, and as a versatile raw product.

How can I get bamboo to grow?
Q. I have a small bamboo that has been growing from the leaves for about a year and it is about twice as tall as it was when I bought it. However, the actual stalk of the bamboo is the same height. There seems to be some hardened green paste on the top of the stalk (which was there when I bought it) and I wonder if that has anything to do with the stunted growth. Is there any way for me to get the actuall bamboo stalk to grow and not just the leaves?

A. I think (no name) at level 3 has the right answer. From what you are describing, you have bought a "Lucky Bamboo", which is not really a bamboo, but a Dracaena. Check the site below for care and propagation instructions -- or type "lucky bamboo care" into any search engine and you will get oodles of sites to check for even more information. Good luck & I hope you find what you are looking for.

How do I transplant a bamboo plant to a different pot?
Q. I have a bamboo plant that was flourishing and is not anymore. I think the pot it is in is too small. I think they need to be in rocks, at least this one is, any other tips? A bigger ceramic pot? Certain kinds of rocks or does it matter? This is a lucky bamboo plant, did not know this is not really bamboo. It is planted in rocks and the pot it is in is small. It has grown up about 10 inches since I got it.

A. In winter our houses are drier than a desert. It dries out the soil and plant quickly. Usually we deprive our plants of suffiecient light sun or lamps at this time of year. The basic metabolism of the plant often diminishes at this time. If you water all the plants at the same time, those with greater needs thrive and those with lesser needs drown. My peace lilly hasn't needed watering for the last three weeks, My ferns can'lt get enough even in in the cooler rooms. If you have trouble with watering, which kills more plants then any other cause, buy a $5 dollar moisture meter from Walmart or Lowe's. They are so easy to use that my 5 year old grandson makes it his job to check out every one of my plants when he comes over for a visit and… [cont.]
