Privacy Screening

     This bamboo is native to South Korea and Japan. A  favorite for screening with height restrictions and is extremely shade tolerant.  It will average 12 to 16 feet, in most areas of the country, with foliage beginning as low as one foot. It can grow very dense if not thinned providing a very lush green screening effect. Grows very fast and is cold hardy. It works very well for stabilizing creek banks and other wash areas. We have reports back from our customers in zones 6 that this one will remain evergreen to -10 degrees F. when well mulched.   This one is wind and salt tolerant.
I recommend this species for Climate Zones 6 and warmer.
