Phyllostachys bambusoides 'Castillonis'

An exceptionally beautiful bamboo forming a slowly increasing clump. Upright, glossy, yellow canes with green stripes. The pale green leaves are sometimes slightly variegated. Height 14 to 16ft. (5m).

Has tolerated -18 C. but for colder sites in the north,  Phyllostachys vivax 'Aureocaulis' is a hardier alternative.

Phyllostachys 'Castillonis Inversa' has green stems striped with yellow and makes an interesting contrast.
