Regular watering is essential, especially during the first few years of establishment, and it benefits from mulching in colder climates to protect its root system.Flowering Cycle
Flowering: Infrequent, every several decades; typically, flowering leads to die-back, but new growth can be encouraged through division.
Propagation
Methods: Rhizome division and rhizome cuttings are the most effective propagation methods, best performed in early spring to encourage healthy growth.

   Container Planting: Castillon Bamboo is well-suited for large pots or containers, offering versatility in both indoor and outdoor settings.
3. Environmental Support: The bamboo’s root structure helps prevent soil erosion, and its foliage provides shelter for wildlife, contributing to local biodiversity.
