Phyllostachys nigra 'Megurochiku'

Phyllostachys nigra 'Megurochiku'
 'BLACK STRIPE'

Average mature size  3.5" x 54'      Hardy to 0 F     
Sun to Part Shade
 
     Beautiful collector rare species with its black stripe on gray/ green canes. I have two plantings of this species and I believe the site with more sun light is going to have the best striping characteristics. The culm sheath have wavy blades with prominent oral setae, auricles and ligules. Likes most all planting sites, but I would recommend full sun. The wood is of high quality and used by many craftsmen.

I recommend this species for USDA Climate Zones 6 and warmer.
