Default Re: Bamboo to grow ??

You might want to check out bambooweb.info • Index page Also look at ABS - Species Tables Index That will give you a list of size and hardiness for bamboo. The species that you should look at is Phyllostachys. Two of my favorites that may survive for you are P. nigra 'Henon' and P. viridis 'Robert Young'. The other species that I am familiar with is Semiarundinaria. I like S. fastuosa. I have the Henon and the Fastuosa.
