Colourful contrast
A colourful contrast. The giant bamboo 'Aureocaulis' (Phyllostachys aureosulcata) is an eye-catcher in your garden! With yellow ochre blades and green leaves, the giant bamboo makes a beautiful picture.
The winter-hardy plants spread. So dig a root barrier around the plant to keep it in check. Cut away unwanted shoots that do emerge. Plant the Phyllostachys in a sheltered spot in partial shade or shade. Keep the ground moist, but not constantly. Water it regularly in a pot or planter.
