Tropical Timber Bamboo PlantsThree (3) gallon container, with huge root mass and last years growth removed. A stunning, large, green very tropical looking bamboo with showy satin green canes which when planted in the ground will quickly achieve heights upwards of 40'and 3' in diameter. This bamboo is quick to establish itself over a wide range of soil conditions. Well drained soil and some water are all you will need to grow our starters into a large multi caned bamboo clump within a couple of years. This open clump form will initially focus its energy on making underground roots or rhizomes, then usually the first summer after it has been planted, will send up several new canes or shoots. These shoots will rapidly grow into very beautiful clump of large, straight, poles of amazing tropical green bamboo. Vulgaris makes a great bamboo for a privacy break.
