Product Reviews:
My black bamboo
By: bevil Anderson
Pros I bought a small plant from you guy's about two-months ago- and I thought that it was much too small, but within the last two weeks it has really started taking off!
Cons When I rec'd it, it just looked like reg. bamboo plant. Now the chums are sprouting, and one has grown an incredible 4ft. in a week! Can't wait till it turns black. Right now the stems are dark-green and very pretty.
Comments Nothing much to explain, I can see why Black Bamboo would be a best seller.
