I’m rehabilitating the bamboo stands neglected by years of renters. Folks, if you are constantly puzzling your cutting tools into a clump to thin, it’s been far too long!
I found several good looking shoots and gave them space. (I only made one “oops” cut.) Even when terribly neglected, bamboo never takes more than 3 yrs to bounce back. In a few weeks, this clump will fill back in better than before.
Now to set the sprinkler on this clump while I start on the others.
