Cane question

<< < (3/3)

Dingleberry:
Oh, I meant the sheaths were brown on some and green on others. I think I'm beginning to get it.  The green sheathed ones also seemed to have greener and thinner stems. Thanks for all the help everyone. :)

Think of it this way...each cane you see grows to its ultimate height the first year it is up. The next year the cane matures(walls thicken) and after the third year that cane begins to dies. Each cane has a 3 year life cycle. I collect second year canes after their second growing season(Winter of the second year) and into the third before the cane turns tan color.   Pat
