Actually February is the preferred time to transplant running bamboo. You want to do that while they are dormant. Which is right now. You have to get a section of the rhizome. I have no idea how you would transplant a very large one, since you need at least part of the culm (shoot) with some leafed branches on it. I guess you need to just find a small culm, since what I got was like that. Keep the rhizome moist at all times while transplanting. Water frequently the first year.

I'm sure there are much better transplanting guides online....
