I super rarely write a review but OasisBamboo has gone out of their way to rectify a problem that wasn't their fault. The first order arrived damaged & dried out. We tried to rejuvenate the rhizomes but to no avail. They always promptly responded to my messages. It finally came down to sending a replacements & they are lovely & lively. This company did two things I appreciate. First they communicated promptly & second they stood behind their product. They provided good instruction also. Thanks

Frequently Asked Questions
Care instructions
When planting for a privacy fence, depending on species and your own preference, space out every 3ft to 8ft apart. (Seabeeze Bamboo - Within 1 year you will have a privacy screen, in two you will have a privacy wall, in three you will have a privacy impenetrable barrier.)
You want to dig holes wide rather than deep. Bamboo likes to stay shallow in the soil, which is why mulch is very important. Bamboo will naturally drop its own mulch as a survival mechanism, shielding its valuable and vulnerable rhizomes from the intense heat of the sun as well as freezing cold temperatures.
My rhizome is not growing
There are many reasons and outcomes to this question. Here is how we troubleshoot, your bamboo/ it’s rhizome should be planted relatively shallow, as gently as possible excavate out the rhizome in question. Many times just under the surface you will find healthy beautiful growth, if so replant and continue as was.
Other times we may find the soil was not porous enough and the growing buds molded off or not enough water and the growing buds dried out.
Those are the most common errors.
Be sure soil is well draining.
Be sure to top off and around generously with mulch
Be sure you are planting these plants/ rhizomes just below ground level, utilizing mulch to add protection and coverage.
Be sure to water plenty, especially at first.
