Any ideas on why my black bamboo leaves are over producing and forming like this? Plant is in the ground and 15+ years all of the smaller potted bamboo is the same... Help and advice greatly received
I think I remember reading that bamboo flowers and dies and that they time flowering for the same year (I guess in a single locality) and that when this happens the wild Panda need to have food supplemented by humans because all the bamboos just die at once.
Thanks, I've now read a couple of articles on flowering, what a shame this bamboo is exceptional. All of the pots from the same plant are reacting the same, amazing but upsetting to know its dying

Here they also often flower at the same time, due to them all being clones, so expect mass Bamboo death.
