Phyllostachys are attractive, tall, evergreen bamboos that make an architectural statement in the garden.
Phyllostachys vivax f. aureocaulis is a very vigorous bamboo with tall thick, golden-yellow canes that are randomly striped with green. In its native China it can reach over 20m and will form a thicket that's around 8m high in UK gardens. For this reason it’s best grown as a single specimen in a large garden.
For best results grow Phyllostachys aureosulcata f. aureocaulis in moist but well-drained soil. In the right conditions it can spread, so limit the roots with a non-perishable barrier.
