Phyllostachys flexuosa 'Spring Beauty'
Expected Height: 24 feet
Diameter: 1.5 inches
Hardiness: 0°
F
USDA Zone recommended 6 through 9
Phyllostachys flexuosa flowered in 2001 and we grew many seedlings of
which a few had leaves that were highly variegated on the new spring growth,
and the culms are variously yellow or yellow with a green sulcus. If you
look at the lower picture you can see the reddish maroon lingual on the
leaved typical of Phyllostachys flexuosa. Very similar to Phyllostachys
flexuosa 'Kimmei,' but this is our
own selection and may be superior.
Should be available soon.
