Hi Michelle,

I did a quick web search for Heavenly/Sacred Bamboo and found a link with some information on the species.

Apparently some varieties respond well to bonsai techniques and some hard pruning might be needed here to restore the line of the tree and get the taper under control.

The colours are lovely and the bark is awesome. It will be very interesting to see how this one develops.

All the best,

Aaron
