So rest-assured if you plant out one of our bamboos you won't find it appearing in next-door’s lawn by next year. Our bamboo varieties are only clump forming. They will grow and grow vigorously but the growth will only increase the size of the existing clump. And when the clump starts getting too big, put your spade through it and divide it - creating new plants, division is best done in spring before the new stems appear.</p> <p>The main bamboo plant varieties we stock are black bamboo (Phyllostachys nigra) Yellow Groove Bamboo (Phyllostachys aurea), Green sulcus Bamboo (Phyllostachys aureosulcata 'Spectabilis') and the big leaved Arrow Bamboo (Pseudosasa japonica). </p> <p>Browse our <strong>bamboo plants for sale</strong> below and find the perfect item for your house or garden online today.</p> Copyright 2013 Athelas Exotic Plant Nursery en Fri, 24 May 2013 20:31:40 +0100 Fri, 24 May 2013 20:31:40 +0100 Thu, 23 May 2013 19:45:14 +0100 <a href="http://www.athelasplants.co.uk/bamboo-c6/fargesia-jiuzhaigou-p280"><img src="http://www.athelasplants.co.uk/images/products/thumbnails/1364043678-12781700.jpg" alt="Fargesia jiuzhaigou" /></a> <p><a href="http://www.athelasplants.co.uk/bamboo-c6/fargesia-jiuzhaigou-p280">Fargesia jiuzhaigou</a></p> <p>Common Name: Umbrella Bamboo Situation: Situate in part sun to shade in moist soil.
