Thamnocalamus crassinodus 'Kew Beauty'

An exceptionally attractive non- running bamboo forming a very dense, arching clump around 12 to 14ft.(4m) high. 

An elegant, delicate looking plant with very small leaves on distinctive blue-grey canes which become red or brown with age. Branches tinted with red. Regular thinning of the older canes will allow new growth to be more effectively displayed.

Not quite so hardy as other sorts so will benefit from light shade and shelter from wind. In very cold winters a proportion of the leaves may be shed but they are quickly replaced in spring. Has withstood -15C.

Mostly used as a specimen plant but sufficiently tall and dense for screening.

  see also 'Gosainkund' (syn. 'Glauca')
