SCREENING BAMBOO 1.5 - 2mtrs


PAGE UNDER CONSTRUCTION

Bambusa Guangxiensis - Chinese Dwarf bamboo

Picture
Apart from shrub or ground cover bamboos this is the shortest growing bamboo we have. Chinese dwarf makes a good shorter screen because of its compact bushy nature growing naturally to about 2.5 metres in our climate. It prefers a sunny spot with some shelter. While not as cold tolerant as some bamboos, it has done well here and will be suitable for conditions in and around Melbourne.

Price: 20cm pot $49 (available early November)

Screening plant 2.5 - 3mtrs

Thysanolaena Maxima - Tiger Grass

Tiger grass is not a bamboo but has a very tropical bamboo like appearance, with long  dark green leaves and canes that grow to 10mm in diameter coloured dark burgundy with blueish tones.Although it can grow in some shade it is best located in a sunny spot with some shelter from strong winds tiger grass will grow quite quickly to 1 metre across at the base and approximately 2 metres across at the top

Price: 2ocm pot from $25

Screening Bamboo 3 - 4 mtrs
