A wild-collected seedling that was discovered in NE Thailand in 2015 by Thoop Nakasan of Nan, Thailand. Rare mutations are occasionally found.
This one of our favorite ornamental bamboos.
We imported it in 2015 and it took nearly three years to clear USDA quarantine. It has been growing in our test field and propagation has begun.
The leaves are brilliantly variegated white with variable green stripes (like the green and white Starlight candy).
New shoots are purple/pink.
It grows in an umbrella form with cascading, long, narrow, variegated leaves. It is an ideal focal point in small gardens or feature bamboo in the foreground of large gardens, especially in the foreground of an all-green backdrop.
Spectacular in decorative pots or planters.
It should to max out at 12' tall with 1/2" diameter culms. We'll update these specs as it continues to develop in the growing conditions of South Florida.
Min temp, 27 deg F for short periods. Sustained freezing temperatures will not be tolerated. Min USDA zone: 9a. Click here to find zone
