ABOUT
A rare bamboo that is a great
complimentary bamboo to the
Golden Bamboo. This bamboo
gives screen a splash of color.
The culms are yellow with a green
stripe in the sulcus groove. It has a
patterned striping that alternates
sides up and down the cane. It
also has an occasional leaf
variegation. It is a great choice
for a screen because it has low
growing limbs. The culm nodes
are compacted giving this species
a great look on larger canes .
