'Richard Haubrich'
Maximum Height: 15 feet ?
Diameter: 1.25 Inches
Hardiness: 5º F
USDA Zone recommended 8-10
Perhaps the most spectacular and unusual of all of our variegated bamboos, this form of "Giant Timber Bamboo" is also one of the slowest growing. We have had the plant over ten years, but have sold very few. Named for Richard Haubrich, the founding President of the American Bamboo Society. The foliage can acquire an orange tinge when grown with the correct amount of shade. This bamboo is very difficult and seldom available. Also, we can not guarantee this plant.
