It has a bushy, fluffy, rounded habit, with attractive dark green foliage. The natural footprint size of the clump is 2mtrs and the natural ball ball shape usually means its the same width in foliage as height. However this wonderful species can be trimmed, hedged, cut back and maintained into narrower garden beds down to 1mtr wide. Keep in mind that the narrower the garden bed, the shorter the hedge will be. It is a fantastic noise and wind barrier for ultimate protection. 

Clumping bamboo grow circular, so plant them the same distance apart as the width you have available. Eg. if your planting trench is 80cm wide, you would plant them 80cm apart to form a dense screen. The narrower the space, the closer you plant the bamboo together. For more information, talk to one of our helpful and knowledgable staff members for professional advice on your garden circumstances.
