October Bamboo Headquarters Events

admin — Sat, 27 Sep 2008 16:25:56 +0000

October will be a festive month of special bamboo sales for us. On Monday the 13th we will be offering small to medium sized plants of the most colorful and exotic at the San Diego Horticulture Society Meeting in conjunction with a program “Bamboo, the Earth and Us”. For more information go to http://www.sdhortsoc.org/meeting_dates.htm. The cost is $5.00 for non-members.

Then on Saturday the 25th we will offer a large cross section of all our bamboos at the much-anticipated sale by San Diego Chapter of the American Bamboo Society, which also features an auction of rare bamboo. One can often find species that have been newly introduced from other countries after undergoing rigorous inspection and approval by the USDA. For further details visit http://www.abssocal.org/calendar.html.

This event is free to the public!

For those of you who do get the chance to visit our nursery you’ll be amazed at all the new bamboo companions we’ve gathered together this year. We’re now offering a full array of exotic flora from all over the world, most notably Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. We’re really showing them off, as you can see from how different our front entrance now looks! We hope some of you will find the time in your travels to visit us.

New Running Bamboo Garden

In May we installed an entire new demonstration garden dedicated to running bamboos. The site has 14 beds, each planted with different species and surrounded with rhizome barrier. This running bamboo garden will be used to illustrate the ease of installing the barrier while adding to our already awesome collection of mature in ground specimens. As most of you bamboo lovers have learned, there’s a BIG difference between looking at pictures of mature bamboo and seeing, hearing and feeling the real deal! Please stop in for a personal tour if you are in the area.

I can’t tell you how happy I am with your product!

Hi Bamboo Headquarters, I can’t tell you how happy I am with your product!
(But I will try). Your UPS online tracking link was simple, I just checked the progress of my plant every day and knew about when it would arrive so I can get it ready to put in the ground. I received the box today and was flabbergasted at the size! I recently placed a similar order from another bamboo etailer and paid about the same amount, and received a plant 4x as small, this one is almost perfect in the height I was hoping to achieve in a year or two! THANKS SO MUCH! Hopefully I will have much privacy from our neighbors!
