  • 1 503-647-2700 Front Page- Need Hi
    front page- need Hi res closeup www.bamboogarden.com 1 503-647-2700 Forward by Ted Meredith Bamboo Garden is very special. Founded in 1984, Bamboo Garden has a diverse collection of more than 300 bamboo species and forms on 20 pastoral acres near North Plains, Oregon. Here mature bamboo groves are cast in a beautiful natural setting of rolling hills, ponds, mountain stream, and wooded backdrop. Customers of the nursery are offered golf cart tours of the extensive grounds. Europe has a number of splendid bamboo gardens, and a few very famous ones that are connected with a bamboo nursery, where one can see many species of bamboo in mature natural groves and then have the opportunity to purchase the same bamboos for one’s own garden. America now has an equivalent in the Bamboo Garden. Owner Ned Jaquith, an ardent bamboo enthusiast, has introduced countless people to the world of bamboo and served as a mentor to countless more---myself included. Nothing seems to please Ned more than introducing another person to bamboo. His welcom- ing enthusiasm carries through to the Bamboo Gar- den’s knowledgeable staff, who are adept at discuss- ing bamboos with experts and novices alike. Nursery manager Noah Bell oversees the operation, includ- ing nursery, office, and sales. Maintenance foreman Reveriano Ramirez directs bamboo propagation and care. Bamboo Garden is an impressive operation with many fine people in key roles working to make it so. Like Bamboo Garden, the Bamboo Garden catalog is something special too. The bamboos are beautifully photographed and described (Noah and Ned did most of the photography themselves) with clear illustra- tions that show how to maintain bamboo (credit to Charissa Brock for illustrations and layout design) .

  • Lebeau Bamboo Nursery Plant Guide 2012
    LeBeau Bamboo Nursery Plant Guide 2012 [email protected] 541-499-4992 Introduction to Bamboo Bamboos are members of the Poaceae family, as are corn, sugar cane and other grasses. Bamboos differ from the other members of the grass family by the presence of branches at each node. A bamboo culm consists of an internode (which is hollow for most bamboo) and a node, which is solid and provides structural integrity for the plant. At the node are one or more buds (depending on the species) which produce side branches. 2 _____________________________________________________________________________________ Term Definitions Culms - The woody section commonly known as the “cane.” Rhizomes - Similar in appearance and structure to a culm, a rhizome grows horizontally underground. Each culm stays connected to one another through the plant's rhizome network, causing a grove of bamboo to be one single plant. Buds and roots are present at each node. New Rhizomes - A new rhizome, produced from an existing rhizome, travels horizontally within the top two feet of soil. Growth habit is similar to emerging shoots, however only the internodes in the tip expand. The internodes are often an inch or less in length. Tips sometimes turn upwards into a small shoot, commonly called ''whipshoots.'' These are smaller and weaker than regular shoots and often emerge out of the normal shooting season. Sulcus Groove - A small groove the length of the internode present only in Phyllostachys, appearing on alternating sides of culms and rhizomes with the bud at the base. In many bamboo varieties, the sulcus is a different color than the rest of the culm.

  • Irish Garden Article
    Bamboo! amboos are members of the grass family, the Poaceae still used for construction, scaffolding, flooring and indeed or the older wider clan, the Gramineae.. For centuries for utensils and wonderful artefacts. Of course they are at Bin Asia, where most kinds originate, they have been their most beautiful when used in their natural, living form held in high regard and used both for aesthetic and practical as plants. Elegant and distinctive, they rarely compete with purposes. They are hardy and evergreen and can be grown other plants. Because they are grasses, they share with their in most soil types. There are over a thousand species ranging smaller relatives the quality of movement, and that wonderful in size from dwarf varieties to towering giants. Bamboos are swishing sound. Their delicate-looking leaves and attractive canes make a pleasing contrast to most other types of plants. Part of their charm is their versatility. In the classic perennial border or the mixed border of shrubs and perennials, bamboos can be used to add evergreen structure to the composition. Use them behind other plants to form a quiet green backdrop, or repeat them throughout the border to make vertical accents, in the same way that conifers are sometimes used. Phyllostachys and fargesia varieties are especially suited to this, and are far more interesting than static conifers. To heighten a tropical look, bamboos can be mixed with exotic, medium- sized trees such as snakebark maple, paulownia and catalpa or with evergreen, broad-leaved and coniferous types like hoheria, eucryphia, schefflera, Himalayan pine and the lovely Chinese fir Cunninghamia lanceolata.
