Description

Phyllostachys aurea is a lovely evergreen bamboo with bright green stems that mature to golden yellow when grown in full sun. Thin mid-green leaves up to 18cm long create a good screen, but equally make a lovely feature in themselves. When a breeze passes through the leaves, it sounds like flowing water and it was often used in Japanese gardening for this relaxing sound effect.

This award-winning, clump forming Bamboo will grow to 3 x 2 meters in 20 years. Plant in moist or moist yet well-draining soil in a fairly sheltered position.

AKA Golden bamboo, Fish pole bamboo, Golden bamboo shrub

Planting Steps

Aftercare Advice

Trees and shrubs require a good watering regime for a couple of years whilst they establish. Water well and regularly through spring and summer, increasing in hot or dry weather. If planting in autumn, you may only need to water a little. It is advisable to keep the area free of competing weeds and grass during this period.
