Phyllostachys aureosulcata

Be the first to review this product


Product Description

This hardy bamboo has slender green stems with pronounced yellow grooves on opposing sides of the cane. Rigidly upright in most cases, occasionally a stem (culm) will develop abrupt crooks in it, causing a zigzag pattern at the base; giving it the nickname of "Crookstem Bamboo". Selective pruning can emphasize the effect and add distinct character to the culms. A running bamboo with strong vertical growth.
Hardy to -20°F
Maximum Elevation: 6,000 ft
