— UPDATE 18 MAY 2025: 2 saplings are left and offered free of charge in Apr./May 2025. —
Bambusa textilis var. gracilis (BS-0243), a less tall variety of Bambusa texilis, was recently propagated by plant division. They are planted but easily dug out. Only 2 two-stemmed saplings, each 1.9 m tall, were left and are offered free of charge.
This bamboo forms a nearly dense clump with culms up to 8 m high. It is an ideal bamboo for privacy screening along property boundaries, but is also attractive and easy to grow as a solitary bamboo in the garden.
