Phyllostachys Aureosulcata ‘Spectabilis’

Create an architectural statement and channel an exotic feel in your garden with this fully hardy yellow-stemmed bamboo. Holding an RHS Award of Garden Merit, Phyllostachys aureosulcata ‘Spectabilis’ is a neat, upright bamboo that forms straight, narrow clumps, making it ideal for the back of the border or using as a tall privacy screen. Enjoy year-round interest from the golden yellow culms, which are often streaked with green, the pink-flushed young shoots and the dainty evergreen leaves, which make a lovely sound as they rustle in the wind. The lower leaves can be removed to showcase the stems to best effect. Height: 6m (20ft). Spread: 3m (10ft).
