Green Groove Golden Bamboo – Phyllostachys Aureosulcata ‘Spectabilis’ – 3 Gallon Pot (2-4′)

A rare and beautiful collector species and exceptionally cold hardy, Green Groove Bamboo has unusual yellow and green striped canes that grow very dense to give you a great, colorful privacy screen. Bright yellow coloration of the canes with the green stripe in the sulcus grooves is absolutely beautiful. Even more, its dark foliage contrasts wonderfully with the yellow canes. A fast grower to 25 to 30 feet tall in warmer climates and 15 to 25 feet in cooler climates, this bamboo forms a thick grove of 1.5 to 1.75 inch diameter culms. Spectabilis likes as much sun as you can give it for best coloration but will grow in part shade. Handles windy sites better than Yellow Groove Bamboo and is cold hardy to -15°F.

Note:  For our customers who live and garden north of USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 6a, where this Bamboo variety is not reliably winter hardy, you’ll be happy to know it can be grown in containers that can be brought indoors during winter and placed back outside when temperatures warm up in spring.
