Bamboo
teeka0801

can I thin my tropical bamboo now?

teeka0801(7aNoVa)
16 years ago

I want to get rid of some of the older(thinner) culms to show off the new ones but since there are so many new ones coming up , is this a good time to prune off old ones? If not, when should I do this?

thanks! teeka
