Where do you find the seed on a bamboo plant ?
Question:
Answers:
Bamboo plants primarily produce seed when the plant has reached the end of it's life cycle and it's time for the "next generation". You will find the seeds intermixed with the branching, but first you will notice flowers on it before the seeds develop. Often times a bamboo that is in flower will start to drop it's leaves and look like it is dying as almost all of it's energy is set to producing seed, and most often the parent plant itself dies afterwards.
it is the shoots i believe, which comes from the sides among the joints
It's the rings around it. If you dig a shallow trench, lay your bamboo in there, cover it with dirt, water it...new little plants shoot up every couple inches or so where the rings are.
Bamboo like other canes propagate from themselves. If you will notice at each segment intersection there maybe what would look like roots. Just cut off a piece of bamboo, lay it on ground and cover with a little dirt and shortly you will have more than you can stand.
