This tropical plant has long won the hearts of many flora lovers. Sophisticated and fragile in appearance, but very strong spiral bamboo stem is an excellent complement to the green corner in the modern interior of the apartment, which may contain elements of bamboo wood and more. Despite their native humid and warm climate, it is quite possible for bamboo to reproduce at home, if you create the necessary environment for this.
Instructions
Step 1
As with many plants, spring is a good breeding season for bamboo. It is worth noting that giving the bamboo this shape occurs artificially - by placing the trunk in a twisted stick, in which the bamboo takes on its interesting shape. Since bamboo shoots appear in the form of foliage, it is worth trying hard to grow a "twisted stick".
Step 2
Reproduction of such exotic occurs by root division. Since the roots of the bamboo are firm enough, it is best to use a tool at hand to make the planting process more successful. You can also propagate bamboo by cutting off the shoot from the parent trunk and placing it in water or soil.
Step 3
As a soil, bamboo is not whimsical, moreover, its growth in water is much more successful. But in order to provide it with the necessary nutrition, it is recommended to periodically enrich the soil or water with minerals.
Step 4
Bamboo is a moisture-loving plant, not only in terms of watering, but also in terms of the state of the air (its humidity). Therefore, it is necessary to water the bamboo daily, but taking into account the season of the year and its condition. To understand the needs of bamboo, it is worth paying attention to what exactly it needs. With insufficient soil moisture, bamboo leaves begin to curl, and if excessive, they sag. A good way to create optimal environmental conditions for bamboo is the automatic or manual spraying of water, which creates the increased moisture needed by the plant.
Step 5
Since bamboo is a plant in the tropics, sunlight is vital for it. Considering the rapid growth and reproduction of bamboo, it is worth choosing a voluminous pot for planting. It is another matter when frequent planting and pruning of bamboo is assumed. In this case, an original and miniature vessel can be selected for its shape.
