Albert, thanks much for letting me know the status of this report.
Looking forward to reading it. I don't know how many 'chill hours'
are average here; seems quite variable to me.
Speaking of P. bambusoides, the local arboretum here has what they
call _Phyllostachys sulphurea_. Is it your understanding that this
is a cultivar of P. bambusoides? The culms are as beautiful as Moso
imho: very bright yellow.
Alas, you were correct: the new culms on my B. oldhamii died. Just
fell over and expired <sob>.
