BRANDISII
TALLEST BAMBOO
IN THE WORLD!
(Dendrocalamus brandisii)
Brandisii is a part of our unique & unusual bamboo range of which we have a small selection available. These beautiful species of bamboo are not the popular types that sell on mass, but rather the specialised rarer varieties for bamboo enthusiasts and collectors.
Brandisii has the claim of being the tallest bamboo in the world! It has reached up to 36mtrs in height overseas but is a little shorter in the Australian climate. It is an EXTREMELY LARGE bamboo with dusty green culms and large leaves. It is a feature purely for its size! Brandisii is edible and can also be used for construction and arts and crafts.
​
Brandisii is fairly quick growing and extremely low maintenance once established. It is also very drought tolerant, so perfect for acreage.
​
Follow our bamboo planting guide (provided with your purchase) to achieve the best results. The guides are helpful and easy to follow, and assist you in achieving the best results in the shortest amount of time. Most of the effort in growing your bamboos is preparation and the first few months after planting.

​
The approximate size of bamboo is only a guide. Plant measurements are taken from the bottom of the pot. ​
The sizing of plants does vary, particularly through different seasons of the year.
The most valuable part of the bamboo is the rootball size within the pots, which produces incredibly fast growth once planted.
Stock availability, pricing and sizing are subject to change without notice. For more information, please contact us directly.
