      @Who am I? This is a not to good photo of my nigra in 100 litre pots at the time, they made a lovely moveable backdrop if I remember I had 3 nigra and 1 aurea. bamboo black.jpg

      Thanks mazambo. Can you remember what sort of 100litre pots they were and where you got them? What I mean is, were they gardening pots or some other kind, like builders tubs?
