In 2016 OnlyMoso USA initiated large scale commercial farming of Phyllostachys edulis in the United States, in the state of Florida, becoming the first entity to grow mōsō bamboo from seedlings in large scale in the US, including the development of nurseries to ensure a constant supply of viable plants for bamboo farmers. luteosulcata)Ĭultivation in the United States

& Kakish.), is a fungus species known from Japan, that grows on the ground on the living or dead roots of the bamboo. The first culm from a seedling will not get much taller than a few inches at most, and may be as thin as 2 mm (0.079 in), but with every new season of culms sent up from developing rhizomes, the grove of plants will grow in height and cane diameter. Mice, field rats and other rodents take notice of the bounty of seed, this results in the loss of many of the seeds, but within a few weeks the surviving few seeds would have germinated (see Predator satiation). The seeds fall from the mature culms in the hundreds of thousands and are quick to germinate. edulis also flowers and produces seed, and it does so every half century or so, but it has a sporadic flowering nature rather than the synchronous blooming seen in some other bamboo species. In mature individuals, the culms in young plants grow taller and wider in diameter as the general plant reaches maturity, but once the individual culm stops growing it will not grow again. The culms grow quickly and reach a height of 90 ft (27 m) or more (depending on the age and health of the plant). This occurs when the plant sends up new culms from underground rhizomes.

The most common and well known mode for this plant is asexual reproduction. Phyllostachys edulis spreads using both asexual and sexual reproduction. Moso is less cold-hardy than many phyllostachys, surviving at a reduced height down to 5 degrees Fahrenheit (-15☌). This particular species of bamboo is the most common species used in the bamboo textile industry of China and other countries, for the production of rayon. This bamboo can reach heights of up to 28 m (92 ft).

The edulis part of the Latin name refers to its edible shoots. Give young plants as much light as possible.Phyllostachys edulis, the mōsō bamboo, or tortoise-shell bamboo, or mao zhu ( Chinese: 毛竹 pinyin: máozhú), ( Japanese: モウソウチク), ( Chinese: 孟宗竹) is a temperate species of giant timber bamboo native to China and Taiwan and naturalised elsewhere, including Japan where it is widely distributed from south of Hokkaido to Kagoshima. Germination is very irregular, it can take two weeks, but also a few months. The soil can be covered with plastic foil or glass, and should every now and then be sprayed with water in order to keep it lightly moist. Germination at a day temperature of 20-25 degrees Celcius, and preferably a bit lower during the night. Sowing description: Soak the seeds for 24 hours in lukewarm water, and sow them superficially (the seeds should still be visible) in sowing mixture. A sunny spot would be ideal, and give the bamboo plenty of water. In most gardens the stems will not reach a height of 28 meters, but will still be a very beautiful and decorative bamboo of considerable size. Because the plant easily recovers in the spring, it is a very suitable plant to grow in the garden. The bamboo is hardy up to -20 degC, although some damage can occur during the winter. The species is originally from China and Taiwan, and is known for it’s edible shoots and the use of the fiber in the textile industry. The largest bamboo outside the tropics, with stems up to 25 cm in diameter and 28 meters high.
