Hibanobambusa tranquillans Shiroshima

Maximum heigth 16′
Maximum diameter 1.25″
Cold hardy to 0 F.

This bamboo has some of the most striking variegated leaves of any bamboo, a beautiful creamy white and green.  I have a couple of small groves of this and they are planted in poor soil with almost no sun.  They have never reached over about 8 to 10 feet tall and spread out a great deal.  I’ve seen a grove in full sun and it was much taller and fuller.                            Buy this bamboo.
