Bamboo

Post by Colin »

I have recently bought a Nigra which I am very pleased with, I also have some other bamboo which I have no idea of the name or type. I bought them from 'Wilkinsons' They just sell them as patio bamboo at about £2. One I planted about 4 years ago and its hardly grown since. I,m assuming they must be some form of dwarf!?. 'Wilkinsons' is also a good supply of Acer, I have 2 that I started off in pots and planted on one is now about 5' tall and only cost me £1.99 :D certainly worth a look.

When confronted by a difficult problem, you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question, "How would the Lone Ranger handle this?"

Hi Colin,
You can't beat a bargain I have bought a few acers at the end of the season when they look a bit dilapidated a couple I got from B&Q are absolutly brilliant a Suminagashi and a Tamukeyama and I also got some bargains from a garden center here called the Outlet decent Acers for £2 or so. visit my link .
