Mimosa & bamboo - plant support!?
Hi - i have a 6ft mimosa in my garden, it is planted at the back of a border a foot away from the fence, and the main stem is supported with a stick. it is doing very well & this year already has grown another foot in height & branched out further, however, as it has got bigger, it seems to heavy for itself, particularly in the rain where it seems to "sag"! Should i keep it trimmed & a bit more bushy - would this help? Also, i have a few bamboos - the common babamboo & black bamboo (sorry - cannot remember the technical names) they too are doing well but seem to lean from the fence (they are not supported but lean into the garden rather than remain staight or lean agaisnt the fence) when it is windy &/or rainy - is there anything i can do to assit them & keep them staight? All advice appreciated, many thanks
The black bamboo is not necessarly Phyllostachys nigra. I have Bambusa lako which is also called black bamboo. If the canes are mature there is very little you can do to make them straight. If you catch then as shoots you can train them to a certain extent with bunge cords And dont let people tell you that all bamboo is invasive, just stick to clumping species and not runners (like phylostachys) and you will be fine Sorry, dont know much about mimosa
