This beautiful bamboo has canes that are marked with elliptical purplish and
 brown spots. The wood is like other bambusoides and is rock hard.
The canes are excellent for wood crafts and and flute making.




   

            

A rare collector's bamboo with beautiful cane coloration on maturing culms.
It takes some time for this bamboo to size up and begin showing these beautiful
 markings, but it is well worth the wait.




Below right photo shows the wide range of coloration
occurring within a grove of this beautiful bamboo. Some
canes will have many to almost solid coloration while
some have less scattered spotting.

              

Average mature size  3" x  35'    Hardy to 5 F      
  Need full sun and plenty of water.

I recommend this species for USDA Climate Zones 7 and  8.
  In USDA Climate Zone 7 expect mature size canes to be over 30+  feet. in height.
In USDA Climate Zone 6 expect mature size canes to be 20+ feet in height.





This is a rare species and not available very often. You will need to order early in the year
 to get this one. This Spring and Summer the new canes  from these divisions should be
 3 to 6 feet in height and larger in diameter. Call and reserve yours now as we
 will have a limited number available.

We are selling our 3 gallon divisions for $95 while they last.
