Clumping Non invasive Bamboo Starter Plant Fast Growing!. You will receive one individual plant with roots about 8 to 10 inches tall. The value is in the roots, as they will produce new stems.  The stem will have little to no foliage. There will be no soil, will just have the roots, but they will stay moist while in transit and well packaged. I take care of the bamboo and make sure you get an excellent specimen.
