I purchased a P.aureosulcata 'Spectabilis' from him 2 years ago, and it is doing well. The stock he sent was packaged well and in great shape...and he does have P. bambusoides available!

Thanks! I'll check it out! I'm also looking into buying either (for their hardiness and some for their uniqueness)
P Nuda, P aureosulcata, p decora or p atrovaginata (incense bamboo). :)

I've had good luck with www.bambu-u.com

The owner is knowledgeable, his prices are good, and his bamboo are always healthy.

I have no connection with this business other than having been a satisfied customer for years.

Thanks Kudzu! So far those are the best prices I've found! Do you know how much the shipping costs per plant? The site doesn't say. (I'm a bargain basement shopper) :)

I have purchased from both Tradewinds Bamboo: www.bamboodirect.com and Halfside Bamboo: http://d1027043.u38.infinology.net/index.html

Both are very good and have excellent prices.

Thanks jeffreydv, will check that out fer sure! :>

I'm a repeat customer of www.bamboogarden.com. They have an incredible selection and reasonable prices. The plants that they send are also top quality. However, since they're on the west coast, shipping gets to be a bit much to get the plants back east.

I'm pretty close to bambu-u so I usually go in person. However, I have bought from him by mail and it seemed like he didn't add that much for packaging and shipping.

I am wanting to raise bamboo to use in my garden for trellises for vines and other garden structures. What is the best bamboo to use for them?

One green world.
