Bambusa ventricosa 'Kimmei'
 

Some forms are dwarf with swollen internodes and used for potted plants, bonsai or small specimens, while others revert to a giant form. Culms turn yellow with age and are striped with green. Some variegation on the leaves. This is a very drought hardy as well as wet tolerant plant once established. Used often where a large specimen is required with a large weeping habit. Great for blocking a view.

55' tall, 3" dia culms, good to 18 deg F
