Details: Growing Bamboo for Profit
Because bamboo is one of the most widely-used landscaping plants, there is a steady demand for popular varieties. One of the best ways to get in on the bamboo boom is with container-grown bamboo plants. Why container-grown? By growing bamboo in containers – typically 2 to 5 gallon pots – you’ll be able to grow more healthy plants in a smaller space, cut down on labor, and have a plant that is ready to load in a customer’s car quickly and easily.
Growing bamboo for profit is an ideal part-time business if you have limited time, as bamboo plants, especially in containers, are low-maintenance. Unlike seasonal crops such as flowers and vegetables, you get paid even if all your plants don’t sell this year. Instead, they just keep growing, and will be more valuable next year. You can start a bamboo growing business with just a small amount of money – just enough to buy your “mother” plants that can be divided to produce more plants to sell.
