Perfect for tall instant screening, for hedging, borders, and focal points, planted or potted.
Selecting the ideal bamboo for your garden depends on your specific needs—whether for privacy, structure, or seasonal interest. Some species grow tall and dense, creating an excellent screen, while others add unique colour and texture to your planting environment. Among the most popular options, Black Bamboo, Golden Crookstem Bamboo, Yellow Groove Bamboo, and Bisset Bamboo each offer distinct advantages.

Bought three fabulous big bamboo plants & they are gorgeous and healthy. Highly recommend.
Great advice from the team before purchasing and the quality and size of the plants were excellent. Much better than the plants we looked at in local garden centres. Highly recommend.
Good preparation ensures strong, healthy hedges that establish quickly and thrive long-term.
How you plant today determines how your hedge grows tomorrow—set it up for lasting success.
Each bamboo on the website will tell you the eventual height you can expect when fully grown. It’s important to note that the height shown is the maximum height. All bamboo can be pruned lower, even the tallest 6m+ bamboo can be used to create a very effective screen at 2m.
Before getting into how to grow and where to grow, the most frequent question we get asked is how many to grow. Nearly always bamboo is bought for screening and the first question is how many bamboo will I need to screen ‘x’ number of metres. The answer will always come down to budget and how quickly coverage is required, but a good average spacing for most bamboo is 1 per metre. You can plant closer together than 1 per metre if budget allows but going more than 1 per metre will generally greatly increase the time it will take to achieve good coverage.
Bamboo love a good drink. This is especially important for establishment of newly planted bamboo, and absolutely 100% essential for potted bamboo.
We are going for big bushy lush dense growth here people! and that can only be achieved by getting out with the hose and giving the bamboo a good regular soaking.
Rain is nowhere near as effective at watering your plants as you are. You really do need a sustained period of heavy rain to equal what you could do with a hose or watering can.
