Description

A spreading dwarf bamboo native to Japan, Sasa veitchii has dark green leaves which gradually wither and turn an attractive creamy-straw colour around the leaf edge. This gives the leaves a wonderful mottled appearance and is particularly eye-catching in winter. Superb as a ground cover plant!

Supplied Size: 7.5L containers

  • Position: Full sun or shade.
  • Soil: Well drained, fertile soil.
  • Hardiness: Hardy.
  • Rate of Growth: Vigorous.
  • Habit: Spreading ground cover bamboo.
    • Height: 1.5 m (5ft ft)
    • Spread: 6 m (20 ft)
  • Notes: Sasa veitchii spreads quickly and is more suitable for growing as a ground cover plant in larger gardens. In smaller gardens it can be grown successfully in a large container.
