Phyllostachys edulis
'Gold Stripe'
Expected Height: 25- 30 feet
Diameter: 2 inches
Hardiness: 10°
F
USDA Zone recommended 8 through 10
This Moso seedling has a green culm with random yellow pin striping. It
seems to be much smaller and slower growing than the species
P. edulis. It may
have use in the landscape as a decorative bamboo that spreads slowly but has
the feathery leaf texture inherent to Moso. Needs a mild climate to thrive,
in a partially shaded area.
Should be available soon.
