Healthy
This plant arrived in great condition. It had 1 stalk that I eventually clipped as it was bent. It was smaller than I thought, but healthy! I've had it for 5 months now, and it's doing well.

The River Cane Plant grows in groups of colonies, thickets or vast canebrakes. It is not uncommon to spot a native thicket under trees along a river. The green stems are coarse in feel, hollow inside and round.Its leaves have a maximum length of 11.7 inches and a width of 2cm to 4cm. River Cane’s flowers have panicle and raceme formations and exhibit short spikes.

Most importantly, uprooting is best done during early spring and winter.
