I have this bamboo plant that is in water and it is getting really tall. Can I trim it back?

    cut the leafs all the way to when it joins the stem and put the cut away bit in a glass of water and after a month or so it will root and a new growth will come off of the stem

      Beginner’s luck. All I’ve done is put it in a larger vase with pebbles and give it fresh water every other day. And I talk to it.

      I second the wow. I have a bamboo plant and I wish it looked this good. Do you use purified water or regular water? I read on Google i needed to use bottled in a bamboo plant but i wasn’t sure.

      Hi Angellina. We use well water since we don’t have public water where we live.

    It’s amazing that it’s not falling over! Maybe it’s your pep talks helping it stand tall!
