Bambusa Green Hedge Bamboo Plant - 1 Gallon and similar items

"Green Hedge" Bamboo 1 Large Gallon Size Plant Bambusa Multiplex Green Hedge Green Hedge is the quintessential bamboo used for hedges and screens. It has a nice upright habit and side shoots that will grow all the way to bottom node on the cane, thus giving you a very nice dense screen down to the ground. The canes can grow to 25 feet tall if left untrimmed, though a more normal size is 18 feet; within 4 years the base will be approximately 4 feet in diameter and the spread overhead will be between 8 and 12 feet. This bamboo will create a living wall if you have need of a screening bamboo. However, if you wish a more controlled growth, this bamboo can be trimmed to a much shorter hedge. Bamboo canes, when cut, will produce significant side growth that will extend approximately 2 feet above the height of the cut cane. Once a cane is cut, it will not grow taller, but rather the side shoots and leaves become thicker and bushier. This makes a very nice and thick hedge. Imagine a hedge that you never have to cut a branch more than once during its lifetime! A great labor saver! When I grew bamboo as a hedge, I trimmed it once a year when the new canes were growing and then I was done! Green Hedge has a nice bright green color in the canes and leaves with white sheaths that are a striking contrast. The sheath will drop as the cane matures. It is happy with full sun to part or dappled shade. You will receive a nice one gallon plant that is currently 36 inches or more in height. It’s pot will removed and possibly some of the soil to save you on shipping charges. It will be packaged to retain moisture.
