Phyllostachys aureocaulis can grow to its ultimate height of 6m very quickly, which makes it perfect for creating a screening hedge. The Bamboo features canes with green stripes and a lemony-yellow colour, which when placed in good sunlight, will turn an orange/pink shade.
When placed in your garden, this plant will bring an exotic and modern looking aesthetic to your garden, especially with its long leaves that flutter in the wind- it is just generally much more interesting that your traditional hedge. It is the ideal choice if you are looking for a tall, low maintenance hedge.
This species of Bamboo has all the same features as the Black and Green Bamboo, except the golden colouring that brings a bit of brightness to your garden. You will be better off placing your Golden Bamboo in a spacious area, so that it can spread out nicely. It can be left to grow freely on its own, which will create a lovely contemporary style in your garden, or you can trim it to a desired hedge shape/size.
