Bamboo plants can look terrible in the spring just after the winter, but as soon as it gets warmer the new leaves will appear again one after the other. Aphid can occur when the plant had too much water for a longer period of time or in the earlier spring on the new young leaf. But this doesn’t happen very often.

At the end of winter you can cut older ugly or broken stems to the ground. In this way you will also make room for the new stems that will appear in the spring. In various species the bottom 2 meters of the trunk removes all lateral branches, making the bamboo stem even more visible.

Fertilization

Bamboo care and maintenance also needs manure. The nitrogen content may be slightly higher. Fertilization process can start from early spring onwards. Cow manure grit can be given. In bamboo fertilization, the phosphate content must be low. This is available from us in the webshop.
