Bamboo Gardens
Botanical garden is the best place for you to see most bamboo species in a short time. By knowing the climate condition of the garden location, you can easily know whether the bamboos you are interested in can grow in your area or not. If you want a bamboo identification trip, better visit the gardens at shoot season. In China, tropical bamboo shoot from June to September while runners shoot from Feburary to May. On the right you will see a list of botanical gardens we found for you. We also prepare bamboo species list of each garden for you to decide which garden you want to visit most. Most bamboo gardens welcome plant trade which is highly appealed by private collectors. As for how to bring plants out of China, remember that our experience will surely help you out.
