| Mine is also turning yellow-green. It is not a healthy green as my other bamboo. If you find out please let me know how to correct this. cdfixer@earthlink.net |

| My Moso never gets deep green leaves and always turns even more yellowish at this time of the year. It has never adversely affected the plant, but it does make it look sick. Not sure what the problem is. High nitrogen fertilizer helps green-up the leaves, but it doesn't like heavy fertilizer. My grove is small and about 10 years old. Kt |

| I have noticed that Moso seems more temperamental than other species and are quite quick to yellow, and relatively quick to go into decline when not happy. Don't know what there problem is as I don't see this in other species of Phyllostachys, other temperate species, or tropical species such as Bambusa. |
