Candy Cane Bamboo
Botanical Name: Himalayacalamus falconeri damarapa
Description: Candy Cane is native to the Himalayas. This bamboo is one of our rarest bamboos. The colours of the culms are what give this spectacular bamboo its name. Masses of leaves grow on long slender, arching branches. Pleaching is removing some of the leaves to reveal the canes underneath. If you pleach the lower canes of this bamboo, you get to enjoy the lovely green foliage of the upper part and all the colours of the lower canes (the best of both worlds). It grows best within a cooler climate but likes a little sun, bringing on the colours.
