Colombia’s Only Tropical Bamboo Nursery
Did you know we operate the only commercial nursery in Colombia specialized in tropical bamboo? Tucked away in the hills of Bajo Sabaletas, Valle del Cauca, our nursery is home to over 60 distinct species of bamboo.
Making Bamboo Nursery Tables for a Unique Bamboo Propagation Method
In our greenhouse at Hacienda Guadua Bamboo we installed 5 bamboo nursery tables. We use these tables to grow bamboo cuttings and seedlings in a specially developed biodegradable rooting foam.
The Building of our Bamboo Nursery in Colombia
At the beginning of March 2021 we started with the building of our bamboo nursery at Hacienda Guadua Bamboo. It took us about a month to complete the greenhouse that measures 10 x 48 m.
