Dwarf Variegated Bamboo 'Nana'

'Nana' is a charming dwarf running bamboo, valued for its striking variegated foliage. Its small, dark green leaves are beautifully striped with creamy-white, creating a bright splash of colour. It forms a dense, spreading groundcover, typically reaching only 30-60cm in height with an indefinite spread if left unchecked. This hardy bamboo (H5) is excellent for illuminating shady corners or underplanting larger shrubs. It thrives in partial shade to full shade and prefers moist, well-drained soil. While running, its shallow roots are relatively easy to manage, and it can be contained with regular pruning or a root barrier. It adds a delicate texture and brightness to the garden floor.
