Care Information Before planting, dig over the ground and add well-rotted manure or garden compost. Dig a planting hole so that the rootball sits slightly lower, with 2-3cm (1in) of soil covering the original surface Backfill the hole, taking care not to damage the young rhizomes, then water and mulch. Water regularly and ensure that bamboo plants in containers do not dry out even in winter as the foliage is prone to wind scorch. Give a high nitrogen feed in spring and apply a balanced fertiliser through the rest of the growing season until late August. New bamboo plants can be contained within a physical barrier to prevent them spreading through beds and borders. Divide the bamboo every couple of years. In spring, remove any weak, dead, damaged or spindly canes, cutting them to ground level with secateurs or loppers, at the same time remove any debris at the base of clumps. Smaller bamboos are ideal grown in a container at least 45cm (18in) across. In very cold weather, insulate containers with bubble wrap or move them to frost-free conditions.
