Bamboo

[msoviet409]

There is a species of fish in Viet Nam that consumes only on mosquitoes larvae, they are small black in color, very nice looking fish that people put them in aquariums. And since these fish feed on mosquiroes larvae, business of selling those larvae became very lucrative.

Bamboo is also good for beating the truth out of someone.

At one time, Bamboo, or Cain as it is called here in Kentucky, Grew ever were. Now it is very rear that you even see it. I do wonder how a person can go about getting Bamboo to grow, and what type would grow well here in my state?

[hananokuni2580]

@davideli7879 One species that is native to your State is Arundinaria gigantea (giant cane). Another species that is suitable, although not native, is Phyllostachys edulis (Moso bamboo). Both are monopodial bamboos.

Sympodial (clumping) bamboos are usually tropical in growth habit, whereas monopodial (running) bamboos can be found in subtropical and warm temperate zones. If ground area is limited, clumpers are good. Otherwise, if there is large acreage, runners can be planted.

@davideli7879 Oops ^^; Mōsō bamboo is known as Phyllostachys PUBESCENS. Pubescens.

Kentucky has a humid subtropical climate, just like southern Japan and southern-central China. Any bamboo that grows in those areas will grow in Kentucky.

One site to go to is midatlanticbamboo(dot)com . Plenty of different bamboos for subtropical and temperate zones.
