CULTIVATION.

Flowering, &c. — This species is sometimes said to flower gregariously,

but more frequently single clumps are found to do so. M r. Gam ble

publishes an account of its flowering along the base of the hills in the

North-West Provinces. Mr Greig (the Conservator) reported : I have

observed numbers with one or two stems of a clump in flower; in some

places as many as 5 per cent, of the clumps have flowering stems, and in

others I have only found ten clumps with flowering stems out of several

thousands examined. Between Kolidwara and Haldu Khata whole clumps

over large areas have seeded and died, and the ground is now a dense

thicket of young clumps of from 10 to 30 feet high. The seeding com-

menced here in 1869 or 1870, and has been going on ever since.” Whole

areas, he continues, in Palim, Kansore, &c., seeded and died in 1877-

78. {Man. Timbers, 430.) Mr. Brown writes of the flowering of this,

species in the North-Western Provinces : “ As an example of great vi-

tality in certain bamboos, I may mention here that on the same road along

which Bambusa arundinacea was growing, a clump of Dendrocalamus

strictus flowered in 1881 and sent forth new but thin shoots in 1882. These

flowered again in 1885, ^-nd now new scraggy and thin shoots are pushing

up in the midst of the old clump.”
