Sale!!! $33 each if you buy 2 or more smaller size.We have a lot of this bamboo growing in Alabama. There is a grove a couple hundred yards off the interstate south of Birmingham that stands out in the winter time. Another grove north of Birmingham lines the side of the interstate. Both are extremely vigorous growers. One of the more popular bamboos for screening, Red Margin grows fast and spreads rapidly. Very cold hardy. Beautiful green culms with long nodes making it a good choice for crafts and construction. We have several large groves of this bamboo in the Birmingham area. The picture on the left is of a grove in a deep valley and is just beautiful. We have a great price break available on this if buying field specimen size plants. Planted every 5 feet or so you should have a decent bamboo screen in 2 to 4 years. Fertilizing regularly, watering during dry spells, and mulching is the fastest way to get a dense screen of bamboo. Recommended for zones 6, 7, and 8.

Sale on smaller #2 size. $33 each if you buy 2 or more. Free Shipping. This bamboo will get to a height of about 10 to 15 feet in zone 5, 20 feet in zone 6, and 30 to 40 feet high in zone 7. As always, fertilizing, mulching, and watering will make a big difference. One of the best choices for a screening bamboo that is super cold hardy. We've seen groves of this bamboo that were so dense it was difficult to penetrate into the grove. Although this bamboo can grow to over 35 feet here in the souteast, it will be smaller in a cold climate. In extremely codl climates (zone 5 or colder) it may be killed back in the winter, sending up new growth in the spring. This bamboo is named for the yellow sulcis or groove on each internode. This is quite distinct in the spring on new culms. Many culms have zig-zags in the lower section. In a natural state, or pruned, it makes a great screen. We've seen many groves of this bamboo in our travels in the northeast. Planted every 5 feet you should have a decent bamboo screen in 2 to 4 years. Fertilizing regularly, watering during dry spells, and mulching is the fastest way to get a dense screen. This bamboo is recommended for zones 5, 6, 7, and 8.
