Description: Up for sale is a pack of 3 rhizomes or bare roots from my backyard Black bamboo plants. 3 roots per order for $55, so each rhizome is only $18 ! Plus if you buy 2 or more packs you will get more quantity discount ! Each root is 5" - 6" actual linear inches (including all branching)+ or - long and bearing shoots or growths as pictured. THERE MIGHT BE 4 rhizomes occasionally because the roots I dug up might not cut into 6" so I will include a 4th piece to make the total length..... Generally, I do not send you rhizomes with green leaves since that is considered a full plant, and some states do not allow live plants incoming. You are getting 3 rhizomes in total. All roots have been cleaned and disinfected with special formulated root growing solution twice to inhibit/kill insects and bacteria also to encourage roots transplanting. I have sold hundreds of this in past 2 years, due to medical reason I may have to stop digging and selling them after this year. I will dig or have someone dig the same day as to fill your order so it is ensured to be fresh. Larger order more than 3 packs will take more handling time. I will guarantee LIVE arrival and delivery. Simple planting instruction included here with each order. However, due to various climate zone and soil types, I advise the buyer to follow local planting conditions. Your success in planting this Black Bamboo depends on many variables so it is not guaranteed or warrantee. There are numerous video clips on Youtube on planting these from rhizomes. Please check them out for reference as well.... Shipping is one flat fee to anywhere USA. Each addition pack purchased and paid at the same time will incur $1.00 extra shipping cost. It will be well packed wet with minimal soil and wrapped in paper then in plastic bag or ziplock. General guideline for planting black bamboo rhizomes: Do not let roots dried out Best time to plant this is Spring, Summer when the soil is is warm but not too hot . Summer is fine to plant too, make sure you do not let the roots dried out.. Do not fertilize and do not over water in the first month (just keep it moist). Do not let roots dried out after you receive them soak in distilled water if you can not plant them in 2 days. Plant them in soil as soon as you possibly can. Find a partial sunny spot that has 4 to 6 hours of sun to be your new planting area. Plant your Black Bamboo rhizomes/roots about 3" deep under good compose soil (not hard) in semi sunny area. Space the rhizomes at least 6 inches apart in planting. Same guideline applies with planting in pot. Please make sure the pot is at least 18" wide. Ask me question(s) before you commit to buy since this sale involves perishable and fresh items therefore - no return please. Description : Phyllosachys Nigra Please see pictures for reference.
