These 35 field specimen size Golden Bamboo plants (P.aurea) are destined for a homeowner in Georgia who wanted an immediate screen. We custom dug these, choosing tall plants with limbs close to the ground. With huge rootballs and an average heigth of 14 feet (after pruning!) the landscaper told us these were the best looking and largest bamboo plants he had purchased! |

We had to transfer the plants by pick-up from the delivery truck to the planting site due to the poor condition of the roads - mostly used by heavy equipment. |

  I'm loading Arrow bamboo (P.japonica) in the trailer above. This is a 14 foot trailer. These average 12 to 14 feet in heigth with big rootballs. There are 12 of these Arrow and we loaded 6 Golden and 3 Black on the same trailer. With everything wrapped in plastic they arrived looking as good as when they left the nursery. These big, field dug, specimen size plants are ideal for creating a tall screen in a short amount of time. The customer had already dug the holes so we just unloaded the bamboo next to each hole. |
Commercial and large residential applications of bamboo by Jmbamboo Bamboo Nursery Alabama Power Company - Gorgas Steam Plant - 124 field specimen size plants. The bamboo screen was installed to block the view as well as the wind blown dust from a growing mountain of ash. The waste is surrounded by a long dike that forms a settling pond that circles the area. The bamboo was planted along the road that runs on top of the dike. 100 of the plants were Yellow Groove with a dozen each of Robert Young and Black Bamboo. Alabama Power Company - Miller Steam Plant - 60 field specimen size plants. After the success of the bamboo screen at Gorgas Steam Plant the utility installed a similar screen at Miller Steam Plant. The planting site was along a dyke made up of the ash and had a PH of about 14. I advised that few plants, including bamboo could grow under those conditions. The utility dug a trench approx. 24" wide by 300 feet in length and filled with top soil. The bamboo was planted in this soil filled trench spaced every 5 feet. One year after the bamboo was planted the majority of the plants are thriving. Birmingham
Landscape Architect - This jop was a residential site where
the home owner wanted an instant grove of large bamboo. We delivered
15 very large Moso bamboo specimen plants. Most were 3 inches in diameter
and 30 to 35 feet tall. Once planted the bamboo grove was quite impressive.
Lakeside Home - Smith Lake near Birmingham, Al. The homeowner had a fairly private setting except for one side. We helped install 25 Arrow bamboo that averaged 12 to 15 feet spaced along a 50 foot strip. This should fill in within just a few years. There was a good deal of shade but enough sun for the bamboo to thrive. |
These large Arrow Bamboo field specimens were delivered to an address in Birmingham today. These will be planted about every 3 to 4 feet along a concreted lined drainage ditch. You can see the building they want to hide. This should be a dense screen within a couple of years.
This was the smallest
plant, about 8 feet tall (we included it free). This was placed in an area
that will provide privacy to the deck you can see in the upper background.

Here's
the first load of about 75 plants. These had been watered after loading
and were much heavier unloading! This was a 17 foot truck and the plants
barely fit.
