This vigorous, upright bamboo forms dense clumps of sturdy, cane-like stems with broad, arching leaves. Ideal for creating screens or a bold, architectural statement in larger UK gardens, it brings an exotic, lush feel. It's best suited to areas where its spread can be managed due to its robust growth.
