Quick growing and very hardy canes form a vase shape with a tight clump. Ghost bamboo makes a lovely ornament in any garden.

  • Ghost Bamboo is a reasonably rapid growing bamboo and can reach full height in about 2 to 3 years depending on conditions and the size of the purchased pot. 
  • Water well and keep moist when planting until well established
  • Keep well mulched
  • Loves a drink including a good rainfall
  • Fairly drought and cold tolerant once established.
  • It can be pruned to any height and pleached (remove the lower leaves).
  • Not suitable for small areas due to its clump size (although the clump size can be controlled using a root barrier).
  • Not suited to pots or planters if you are trying to create a screen.
  • Fertilise regularly to promote vigorous growth and more vibrant leaves.
