Bambusa guangxiensis

Chinese Dwarf Bamboo is a hedging clumping bamboo that grows to roughly 3-4m in height. It grows very differently from traditional bamboo, with a very bushy, tufting habit with its foliage and does not naturally show the culms. Chinese Dwarf has quite pretty, large green leaves and gives a very tropical feel instead of a normal hedge. Chinese Dwarf is an extremely fast growing, hardy bamboo, and can achieve a privacy hedge in under 18 months. Definitely a fantastic privacy hedge, sound barrier and wind break. Hedge it down to any preferred height and clean out the below foliage to create a Japanese style effect.
