Congratulations on your success please let me know what you do and how you do it I might be interested. Spot on with this write-up, I truly think this website needs much more consideration. Written by My Collaborative Team co-founder, Carolann Mazza I heard a man named Les Brown recite a parable that went something like this: A Chinese bamboo tree takes five years to grow.
August 30, My Collaborative Team. Charles Jamieson. Jacinta Gallant. Stu Webb. So true. Love the collaborative metaphor. LUV YA! Bamboo is the Chinese symbol for strength.
Randy Heller. Beautiful metaphor, Carolann! One bamboo species can grow a massive 35 inches per day or 1. The cells are filled with water and causes them to expand quickly, like a balloon on a faucet. But only trim back bushes every few months, and cut tree branches every couple of years.
A bamboo plant is a kind of like a Slinky. Right kids? Check out this list of the fastest-growing plants on the planet. You might even want to use some of these in your garden for instant plastification! Get it? Because bamboo is a grass… never mind.
Bamboo plants can grow in infertile soil , which probably has some complicated scientific explanation, but it sounds like sorcery to me. How does it make the soil fertile again?
You probably know that all plants serve as the lungs of the earth. They take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen during photosynthesis, and humans and animals can breathe easier. But you might not know that bamboo actually takes in 4 times more CO2 than your typical plant and thereby releases more oxygen. Bamboo can even remove toxins from the earth. Phytoremediation , which sounds like a Harry Potter spell, is when bamboo removes lead and mercury from the earth and traps them inside its stalk.
After the stalk is harvested, instead of dying and decomposing, the toxins remain inside the stalk where they pose no danger to humans. Thanks, bamboo! Do you know how people are always saying that trees take hundreds of years to grow into forests? Well, it turns out that trees take the better part of a century to mature enough to be cut down for use as lumber for tables, chairs, floorboards, etc.
Do you know how long it takes bamboo plants to mature? That means that the plants being harvested now were only planted or last cut down in How to Start a Business July 26, At a recent Milton Toastmasters meeting, a colleague shared with our group the story about the amazing Chinese bamboo tree.
The growth pattern of this tree is remarkable. And change is never easy. Often, signs of progress are slow, frustrating and unrewarding at times. But it is so worth it…. WNA Blog. Tue 7 Mar About the contributor. Recent News. Tue 2 Nov
