GUADUA ANGUSTIFOLIA
GIANT COLUMBIAN
BAMBOO
(Guadua angustifolia)
Guadua Angustifolia 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.
Guadua Angustifolia is native to Columbia! It has a striking white stripes around the nodes, with short internodes. It is a bamboo suitable for acreage or large blocks. It covers a wide footprint, up to 2mtrs and looks best left natural to grow to its impressive size. It is one of the few varieties of bamboos that can have thorns, although these tend to be higher up on the culms. It is great for dam stability or to prevent soil erosion.
​
Guadua Angustifolia is 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.
