How to Get Bamboo in Animal Crossing: New Horizons
The ’normal’ way of getting bamboo to grow in your settlement involves traveling to other, mystery islands.
Other Ways to Get Bamboo
While traveling to mystery islands is the standard way to collect bamboo, you can also get it using three other methods:
If you buy 100 turnips from Daisy Mae when she visits your island on Sunday mornings, you may receive some bamboo shoots from her in the mail the next day. Your neighbors reward you for doing favors for them by giving you clothes, crafting materials, and furniture. Sometimes, they will give you bamboo pieces or shoots. Once one of your friends who is also playing New Horizons gets bamboo, they can either bring it to you during an island visit or mail it to you at the airport.
What to Do With Bamboo
You can plant bamboo trees on your island like any other plant, and they can provide a unique look or help you set aside an area for a relaxing garden area. And once you do, each mature plant will produce one more shoot that you can dig up from a marked spot next to the tree. The shoots, pieces, and young spring bamboo you obtain from bamboo trees are also necessary as ingredients to craft furniture and decorations that you can’t buy at Nook’s Cranny (although you may obtain them from other villagers or by shaking trees). You’ll receive recipes for these items in the spring and can get more from message bottles, balloons, and your neighbors.
