SCREENING BAMBOO
(Bambusa multiplex 'Goldstripe')
Goldstripe is a small narrow screening bamboo perfect for small garden beds or pots and troughs. Goldstripe will naturally grow between 3-4mtrs in height and can be easily trimmed down in height if need be (read maintenance tips here). It is very versatile to suit most gardens or lazy gardeners!
​
It has a naturally upright growth (most bamboo fan out wide) with attractive bushy green foliage and a golden stripe on the culm. It can also feature a lovely golden hue on the poles when planted in full sun. The natural footprint size of the clump is 1mtr however this wonderful species can be planted into narrow garden beds or maintained smaller to suit your needs, down to a minimum of 40cm. It is the best choice for this scenario as it can still achieve a fantastic screening height in a narrow growing space. Solve your privacy issues in garden beds where no other plant would perform!

Clumping bamboo grow circular, so plant them the same distance apart as the width you have available. Eg. if your planting trench is 80cm wide, you would plant them 80cm apart to form a dense screen. The narrower the space, the closer you plant the bamboo together. For more information, talk to one of our helpful and knowledgable staff members for professional advice on your garden circumstances. Different circumstances have different solutions!
​
Goldstripe is extremely quick growing and can be fully grown within 18-24 months, or quicker if you purchase more established sizes! Goldstripe is low maintenance & drought tolerant once established.

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.
