Seven bamboo clumps, locally known as Baijjya
bansh, (‘Batnbtisa vulgaris Schrad.) flowered
in the village Faridarpara near Bardarhat area
of Chittagong town. Flowering started during
February, 1979 in all these clumps. Out of the
seven clumps, five flowered completely and
died within 18 months. The remaining two
clumps were found to be part-flowering in
nature and were still in healthy and green
condition, even after three years of flowering.
Flowering which started during February, in
both the part – and the complete-flowering
clumps continued till August-September
with a pause from October to January.
Flushes during flowering period were not
purely continuous but it alternated with short
interflushing gaps of 5 to 12 days.
