OKAY! I admit it! I was doing some weeding and loosening up the
mulch I have around my 3 year old black bamboo and FOUND a shoot....
it's about a 1/2 inch (1.25 cm) underground yet!

I'll also admit here that as a child I peeked into Christmas
presents!!!!


I'm figuring another Week until it's a 'real' shoot! hehe
