What is the actual species you are trying to find Eric ? Forget common names...too misleading.

Pretty cheap, and shipping was no biggie, the plant that came was not very big but it was great for the price, seeing as how in my neighborhood the cheapest I could find was 150$.

Go patronize Bamboo Bob Diamata at Pura Vida Tropicals in Vista. He's a really nice guy and has a beautiful place to walk around see some really large bamboo clumps. He's got some neat edibles and tropicals too.
