I agree with Mr.Hans, the photograph shows about 32 attractive species, this number itself cannot be believed. Most of these species have not flowered in the
past 2-3 years. The bamboo group always is the first to report about the
flowering of any bamboos world over. We have to take the claim a bit cautiously.
Somebody who is working near their nursery or workspot probably can report more
details.

Subject: RE: [bamboo-plantations] bamboo from seeds
They used some of my photos on that site which I exchanged for seed of
various species some years ago. I now longer have any of the seedlings but
I did raised them and kept them growing in pots for a few of years. The
seedlings all looked like D. strictus to me and all looked like the same
even though they were supposed to be different species. Also, many of the
species listed have not flowered in recent times so I who knows what they
are selling. I wouldn't waste my time growing unknown species.

Has anyone tried to grow bamboo from seeds.
This guy sells them on the internet but I'm kind of skeptical about buying
these seeds.
