Phyllostachys parvifolia

An outstanding new introduction with enormous potential as a specimen plant or screen.

A tall bamboo capable of maturing quickly and forming a highly impressive specimen plant or small grove even under cool northerly conditions.

Upright green culms  of large diameter bearing masses of small leaves.

Suitable for sun or light shade.

Expected to be clump forming but with a slightly open habit. Spread in 10 years expected to be 1/1.5m.

Its mature height in the UK is not yet known but it is expected that it will be well over 20ft.(7m) and that its culm diameter will exceed those of Phyllostachys vivax.

Hardy and has withstood -24C. 

Slow to propagate so availability may sometimes be limited.
