Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety forms dense clumps that do not require root barriers. Stems grow vertically, acquiring a graceful arch with age. In spring, young shoots are distinguished by light shades, and the culm sheaths are almost white in color, creating a contrast with the foliage.

The plant is suitable for creating hedges, solitary plantings, or growing in containers. The bamboo prefers partial shade but adapts to sun and shade. In conditions of extreme heat and drought, it may temporarily curl its leaves to retain moisture. It grows well in various soils; if necessary, it requires improvement of sandy soils with humus.
