mr bamboo

Bamboo can seem temperamental inside buildings. The main limitation is getting enough light. Next to a sunny window is easy – moving away from the light increases likelihood of problems with pests attacking weakened bamboo.

With good light, bamboo will flourish indoors

1. Keep root zone moist and well drained

2. Adequately fed (too much fertilizer will harm your bamboo)

3. There is adequate ventilation

4. You can manage to spray the leaves with well diluted, seaweed tonic once a week (use an atomiser)

Well maintained bamboo will be robust and can repel pests

Healthy bamboo inside your office is a joy

Plan ahead - include planters in your next building
