Hardy to +-
 -20°C
Stays green: *****
Spreads: *****
Prefers:
Application: specimen, hedge
Edible/Aromatic: No
Soil type: well drained, sandy soil
ph: 6

This bamboo was introduced to Europe as seedlings, some forms have red culms especially on sandy soil. At least 12 numbered clones exist. Nr. 1 grows very compact and is extremely suited to small gardens. Stands a sunny spot well, with better colouration of the culms. 'Genf' is a very good selection also.
