Bamboo’s a good addition to our 100m garden. What variety could you recommend?
May 27, 2023 at 9:35 am ReplySomething small and that doesn’t spread. You’ll be quickly overrun if you don’t choose the right variety! Pleioblastus are nice, and they grow slow, too.
I like a Fargesia cultivar that might please you, the ‘rufa’ is tall enough to cover a fence but not much taller, and it’s a nice golden orange color.

May 31, 2023 at 2:47 pm ReplyHello Kell, look for phyllostachys. It’s a beautiful variety, you’ll see. 😉
