Evergreen bamboo in the garden
For those who love a slightly exotic look in the garden, bamboo is an easy choice. Because our Japanese arrow bamboo is wonderfully suitable for growing an evergreen hedge. At the same time, it serves as a wonderful privacy screen. A bamboo hedge is ideal not only for the garden fence, but also for a garden shower.
Planting and caring for bamboo - an easy task
Bamboo thrives in any garden soil. It is therefore a good idea to buy bamboo even when other plants are not comfortable. Pseudosasa japonica, as it is botanically known, is not only easy to care for but also undemanding. With its narrow, densely grown leaves, it quickly forms a beautiful hedge that you can shape as you wish. Japanese arrow bamboo grows up to 50cm per year and provides a good basis for hedge design. A nutrient-rich soil provides the basis for your beautiful bamboo hedge. And since bamboo in the garden has a low to medium water requirement, this is also a good reason to plant bamboo.
Location for the bamboo hedge
This type of bamboo prefers damp ground and is therefore very suitable for stabilising streams. Where the wind blows unpleasantly in the garden, it is a good idea to plant a hedge growing upwards. It literally takes the wind out of the sails and creates a noticeably better atmosphere. The dense growth of the leaves has a lively effect, especially if the hedge can develop near a garden pond. Japanese arrow bamboo loves semi-shady or shady locations. Full sun, on the other hand, is definitely not to its taste. Therefore, plan a favourable location to enjoy your new hedge for a long time.
Not only attractive as a bamboo hedge
Bamboo also grows wonderfully in a plant pot. It brings a breath of fresh air and a chic look to the balcony or terrace. In rectangular planters, it is also possible to grow a privacy screen, for example, at the edge of the swimming pool or to provide a windbreak for children playing. Japanese arrow bamboo has many advantages. These include the fact that the plants are hardy and can be placed anywhere. Trimming the plants is less complicated than one might think and the design possibilities of a hedge are far more versatile than other hedges. You can buy bamboo from us and plant it on frost-free days.
The plants are grown in pots, so you can plant them all year round.

Note:
This bamboo is a slow spreading variety. Therefore, we recommend surrounding the roots with a non-perishable barrier that restricts the spread of the plant.
