Young spring bamboo, seasonal?

[Reginald Fairfield]

People seem to be wondering if this is a seasonal ingredient. Can anyone confirm either way? It looks like at least one person here has time traveled.

I'm getting it and I haven't time travelled.

I donmt time travel and don't have bamboo but am near 100% certain it's seasonal

here's why!

I have lots of bamboo related DIYs, but all the ones using young spring bamboo are in the seasonal category, while the rest aren't

Same as Khaelis: I haven't time traveled and I get it when whacking bamboo.

I do not time travel and I have young spring bamboo.. and less than a minute ago I got this recipe from a balloon!

I'm getting it and I haven't time travelled.

I mean, are we going to not going to be able to farm it later?

I've been on 3 island tours that have bamboo. Also, I don't time travel.

I just found a bamboo island for the first time and I got it too. It seems less common than the regular bamboo ingredient, where typically a bamboo seems to drop 1 young spring and 2 bamboo. Again, judging from the one island.

I planted some bamboo shoots on my island, so we'll see what happens when they grow.
