See our video about how we dry and store Timorese Black Bamboo poles, upright so they dry evenly.
Timor Black (Lako) is very beautiful in the garden as it forms an open clump. It is a very light bamboo and quite useful for making containers but it is not a structural bamboo as it has thin walls. This clump is ten years old. We are at latitude 28.3S
