Dear Ndzana,
I personally don't have Ph. propinqua, but in our forum many people can contribute to your questions.
Greetings,
Raimund

Dear Raimund,Thanks for your contribution.The bamboo flowering phenomenon is characterized by the production of seeds, followed by the drying of the whole grove.So if P. propinqua has flowered many times in Germany as you say, shall this really be called flowering? A subsequent question is: did these flowerings provoke the drying of respective stands? I will observe what happens for my stand.Greetings from HamburgNdzana--Jesus is good! Jésus est bon!Dr.-Ing.

Dear Ndzana,the flowering of Ph. propinqua is a very common phenomenon here in Germany. For further details please ask in the forum of the EBS-Germany.Greetings from Hannover,RaimundAm 21.07.2015 um 19:24 schrieb "Ndzana jndzana@yahoo.com [bamboo-plantations]" <bamboo-plantations@yahoogroups.com>:Dear Bamboo friends,My Phyllostachys propinqua is flowering for now a couple of weeks, so to say since the beginning of its vegetative season this year in Germany.I live in Hamburg (North part of Germany). My propinqua stand is a bout 10,0 m². The plants were transplanted from an established mature grove here in Hamburg 5 years ago. The plantation is healthy and is regularly managed. otice that emerging shoots are also developing flowers.So my 3 questions about this flowering are:1. Is there anybody in this group having also P. propinqua in Germany/ Europe? The issue here is to understand if this flowering is specific to my stand.2. Since bamboo produces seeds at flowering, what would be the best period/ time to harvest them?3. I expect to regrow my P. propinqua from the harvested seeds. At the same time it is known that bamboo seed germination is very low, that is why the vegetative propagation is well disseminated. So, could someone share successful experience about bamboo propagation through seeds, especially under cold climate?Greetings from Hamburg to allNdzana--Dr.-Ing. Ndzana
