what zone i can plant green stripe bamboo

I don't remember where I found the information but it's at least zone 5. It could be hearty enough for zone 4 but you'd have to check a resource to be sure.

I'm in zone 5b, I think, which is the tip of the thumb in Michigan. We've had a harsh winter, but I built a pyramid type greenhouse to enclose my bamboo and protect it from the weather. Because it is in a large planter and it's still cold here, I've got my fingers crossed Bill Clinton Bamboo will be OK this spring!

I'm not sure I understand your question....but here's where we planed ours and what we've done with ours: we planted it in a long narrow planter box (to help control growth speed), and it has grown well; also, during the winter months we have wrapped it with the big old-fashioned style christmas lights to keep it warm and from suffering from frostbite.

After this winter I see it has died back in Strasburg Virginia outside of Wash, DC. But also lost camelias.

Yes they would last in zone 4. But I would never buy bamboo from Amazon. It is better to buy it from a nursery. The plant is really small it would take forever to grow

I'm in Cleveland , mine made it through a brutal winter and is still green . Other bamboos i have turned brown and will have rege4nerate from the ground up

No sure. I know it required at least 5 hours of sun a day. But you can plant it in a pot and place it indoor near windows with the most day light during the day and no worry about the zones.

The Persimmon tree can be planted in growing zones 7-10, sometimes with great care it can be grown in zone 6B. With the way the Winters have been in the NorthEast I would not plant in the ground.

Don't see why not- with the specialized drainage system it should work well. I have Bromoliads, Cala Lily's, Orchids, and a few others growing nicely in these. Would depend on size of Ella you choose along with how many shoots of bamboo you are going to plant.

If you are growing this plant indoor, the winter zone should not be an issue. Just as a reference, I live in zone 7 and still have problem growing this plant indoor. My plant from 9GreenBox is relatively big but I still have problem growing it. The have multiple failures so it probably has nothing to do with 9GreenBox.

I have a grey thumb, and my stocks are growing AMAZINGLY! Get a small, regular size plastic planter (~1 GAL) that can drain well, and add potting soil. Dip the bottom tip of the stalk in root hormone, stick in soil, pack soil down... water until water exits holes of pot at the bottom. Place in full sun. I live in Texas heat, and I've kept mine outdoors. I watered mine every 2-3 days when I could see that the soil was dry. When you spot new growth (little budding leaves that look like devil horns), your lil fella is producing roots, and you should prepare to transplant to very large container or garden. Look around on the internet for tips. I found Lucky Bamboo Expert on youTube was helpful, and the info on plumeria.org was invaluable. I'm so proud of my 4 guys, and I'm excited to see them mature. I started mine around July, and they have produced small blooms throughout the summer. Go for it!

I'm not sure, mine is zone 5 where I'm at in Pennsylvania, so I go it as a houseplant. Its doing ok but the plant that they send to you is very small and its going to take a long , long time for it to produce the fruit. No instructions come with it , so I treat it as a Orchid cactus. Sorry that I can't give any more than that.

Eventually it will, although black bamboo isn't as aggressive as some other types. I installed a rhizome barrier prior to planting. If you're going to pot it, you'll have to go in and trim the runners every year or two.

As far as I know Fuyu is rated for zones 7 to 9. I'm in zone 8A. For zone 6 your best bet is the American Persimmon (Diospyros virginiana) rated for zones 5 to 9.

plant in water and rocks, if using tap water, let stand 24 hrs, chlorine evaporates - not so good for bamboo, change water every couple months

It is hardy for zone 9. I live in Southern California. I kept it in the shade for a few months. It was not growing. Once I planted it in direct sun in my backyard, it quickly started to grow and blossom with alot of red flowers. I'm sure you can keep it trimmed. I see why not.

Simply water the bamboo should be placed in small pebbles or rocks. Trim the leaves when they turn brown. Bamboo food is available on amazon as well but not needed.

Bamboo is a grass. It grows up to 24 inches a day. I don't think you need to worry about saving the bamboo.

I dont know if I can be much help. I just purchased my bamboo 2-3months ago too. So far my bamboo hasnt gotten any taller, but has just started to spread. Im not a bamboo expert and this is my first attempt at growing bamboo. I dug my hole approx. 4ft wide and 1ft in depth(2 plants). I used a garden and tree shrub composite to plant and fill in the hole. Ive watered my plants frequently and used my yard clippings to cover the exposed dirt. Ive read that once established it should start to spread rapidly and grow taller year to year each spring. Not sure how accurate that is, since its my first year.Hope this helps.
