Hey Cuadra,





Here are some bamboo sites. One is the American Bamboo Society and the other has varieties of bamboo. If you look at the details of Bamboo, you can identify the type. Generally, real bamboo (not lucky bamboo) will do fine with deep and infrequent watering, just like a lawn.





If your bamboo cane does not have a root system, it will become brown and wood like. If you plant one of the nodes, under some good potting soil, it could root. There are a lot of dependencies on variables.
