     Jackie Heinricher's love with bamboo started in her backyard. "As a child, I remember playing among the
golden bamboo my dad had planted, and when it was windy, the bamboos sounded musical. It was my
favorite place."
     A biologist (生物学家) by training, Heinricher, 47, planned to work in a company in Seattle, where she
lived with her husband, but she found it too boring. Her garden gave her the idea for a business. She would
plant bamboo on their private farm. 
     Heinricher started Boo-shoot Garden in 1998. She realized early on what is just now beginning to appear
on the rest of the world. Bamboo is useful as well as earth-friendly. It can be used to make skate-boards,
buildings, fumiture, floors and even clothing. Bamboo takes in four times as much carbon dioxide (CO2) as
hardwood trees and gives out 35% more oxygen (O2).
     First she had to find a way to produce a lot of the plants.   It was a hard task since bamboo flowers create
seed (种子) only once every 50 to 100 years. And dividing a
bamboo plant too often kills it."People kept telling us we'd never succeed," says Heinricher. " Others had
worked on it for 27 years! I believed in what we were doing, though, so I just kept going."
     After a nine-year experiments, she found a way to grow millions of plants. The number of workers in her
company increased from 5 to 55. Now she is working on all kinds of bamboo and selling them all over the
world.   
     "We are at the wonderful moment," she says. "It takes me a lot of time to decide where to pay my
attention. Producing bamboo products? Selling plants to gardeners? Educating farmers about the economic
(经济的) and environmental value of bamboo forests? Or asking the govemment to line roads with bamboo?"
