Good morning steemians , using this medium to welcome you all to my blog titled bamboo in winter. The reason why bamboo remain LUXURIANT even during dry season.
I once sat down and i thought about how the bamboo tree manages to remain LUXURIANT during dry season, then i stumbled upon a write up about the growth of the bamboo from when its seed is planted. One day, God planted a fern seed and bamboo seed and gave them everything they needed to grow. After six months, the fern seed started germinating and after two weeks, it was blossoming, but the bamboo seed did not germinate even at the end of the year.
The second year, God planted other seeds, flamboyant, hibiscus, cowpea beans and lots more, and gave them and the bamboo seed what they all needed to grow. Weeks later they all started to grow, yet nothing came out of the bamboo seed. Year after year, God repeated the routine, planting new seed, giving them what they needed to grow, they all germinated, but still nothing came out of the bamboo seed, but God did not quit on it. Then in the fifth year, q tiny sprout emerged from the bamboo seed and it was so insignificant compared to other plants around it. And after six months, the bamboo had grown to over 120ft. What happened to the bamboo seed during the first five years in which it refused to germinate then? The answer is, IT WAS GROWING ROOTS.
Those roots made it very strong and gave it what it needed to survive. You can imagine how deep the roots would have penetrated during those five years. So, it is not surprise that when all plants lose their leaves during dry season, the bamboo's are still green and LUXURIANT
MORAL LESSON
