Bamboo is an excellent shrub that can be used as screening or as a focal point within a garden. There are many different varieties of Bamboo, some dwarf varieties that can be kept at a low height of 3ft, while some varieties will grow up to 30ft. The most popular kind of bamboo is Phyllostachys, the favourites being aurea, which has golden stems. Another popular variety is nigra, also known as the black bamboo, which has stunning shiny black stems. We have many of these (as well as more unusual types) in stock in an array of sizes, many of which are listed below. Please get in touch for more info on sizes and prices, or if you have any questions or queries.
