Green Bamboo showcases green stems, which compliment the lovely green foliage, and being an evergreen, this plant will offer your garden fresh-looking year-round interest.̴Ì?
We've dedicated time and care into your pot grown plant, so it arrives looking stunningly new and healthy.
The Green Bamboo, also known by its Latin name of Phyllostachys bissetii, loves to stay fresh, so it is more than likely to brighten up your garden even on the dreariest of days. The exotic evergreen creates a dense screen with its thriving green stems, which can add diversity and texture to your garden. Even better, it is low maintenance too!
Green Bamboo, can however, tend to be invasive. They will survive and thrive in spaces with plenty of room- you can do this by planting in a pot twice the size of the root (and even underground). If placed in a good position, it will grow up to 6m tall, but this will only be reached if the Bamboo is treated well and its planted slightly below ground level (an inch or two), with a dish around the bottom of the canes to collect rainwater.
Green Bamboo usually takes a year or two to fully settle down and begin to establish properly. They must be watered well and fed during alternating Spring times during this period. The plant generally prefers to be placed in a sunny or semi-shady position, and if done so, will grow about 60-90cm per year. Planting in dry soil will slow down their growth rate, so for it to fully develop, plant in moist soil.

As it is pot grown, you can easily leave the plant in its pot for a few days/weeks before planting it. Just ensure you keep the plant well-watered, and it gets enough sun. Don't leave it for too long, however, as you don't want the roots becoming root bound.
Pruning of the Green Bamboo should be done regularly to maintain a desired height/shape. You should also remove dead, and dying, stems in the Spring, as well as any new shoots (so they can fully establish to the height of the plant). General trimming and pruning must be done twice a year- in early June, as well as late September.

Field grown, bare roots are young plants that are only planted when they are dormant, from autumn to spring. We lift bare root plants and despatch them during the season but they can be pre-ordered in summer. As they are cheaper to grow, they are one of our most affordable hedge planting options.
Pot grown plants can be planted year round and make a convenient option. They come in a wide range of sizes, from 10cm to 2.5m so they're suitable for the majority of planting requirements.
Also field grown, root ball plants are scooped out of the ground using machinery to keep their root system intact and wrapped in bio-degradable, hessian sacks. They are mature plants that provide dense coverage very early on, ideal for when you need a thick hedge quickly.
Grown in troughs or bags that measure 50cm-1 metre in length and carefully clipped during the growing season. Our instant hegding troughs create a dramatic, instant hedge effect.
Our bare root discount deals include bundles of 50, 100, and 250 plants. The bigger the bundle, the higher the discount.
