It is a key, high-demand product for wholesalers supplying landscape contractors, property developers, and garden centers.

Features & Appearance: This product consists of mature, live bamboo plants, featuring the iconic tall, straight, and sturdy green canes (culms) that are a symbol of strength and elegance. The canes are topped with a dense canopy of delicate, lance-shaped leaves that rustle soothingly in the wind. The overall effect is a fast-growing, living wall that provides an immediate sense of lushness, seclusion, and natural tranquility.
Applications & Occasions: Live bamboo is the number one choice for creating near-instant privacy screens and living fences. It is ideal for blocking unsightly views, reducing noise from neighbors or roads, and creating a secluded garden sanctuary.

Origin and Historical Background:Bamboo, a type of giant grass, has a rich history across the globe, but holds a particularly deep cultural significance in East Asia. For thousands of years, it has been integral to life, used for everything from construction and cuisine to art and philosophy. In many cultures, bamboo is a powerful symbol of strength, flexibility, integrity, and resilience, bringing a sense of history and meaning to any landscape it graces.
Health and Environmental Benefits:Bamboo is an environmental powerhouse. As one of the fastest-growing plants on Earth, it is a champion of carbon sequestration, absorbing CO₂ and releasing oxygen at a much higher rate than many trees, making it an excellent choice for Clean Air initiatives. Furthermore, the gentle, rustling sound of wind moving through a bamboo grove is known to be deeply Tranquilizing, helping to reduce stress and create a peaceful, meditative atmosphere.
Simple Care Guide:Our healthy, mature bamboo is ready for planting and will thrive with proper care.
Light: Most large bamboo species perform best in Full Sun
. This provides the energy needed for their vigorous and rapid growth.
Watering: Bamboo is a thirsty plant, especially when establishing. Provide a deep, thorough watering on a Weekly
basis, and more frequently during very hot weather or for the first few months after planting.
Soil: Adapts to a wide range of soil types but thrives in moist, well-draining, fertile soil.
Crucial Note on Containment: Bamboo comes in two types: "clumping" and "running." Running bamboo spreads via underground rhizomes and requires the installation of a root barrier (a thick plastic shield buried 24-30 inches deep) around the planting area to prevent it from spreading into unwanted areas. Please confirm the type before planting.
Versatile Applications:Use live bamboo to create a "living fence" that offers more beauty and height than traditional fencing, often in less time. It serves as a stunning, modern green backdrop that makes other garden plants stand out. By selectively harvesting canes, you can create a more open, architectural grove effect, allowing appreciation of the individual culms. The harvested canes themselves can be used for garden stakes, trellises, and countless other projects.
Key Advantages:
The Fastest Privacy Screen: Its number one advantage. No other plant can create a tall, dense screen for privacy and sound reduction as quickly as bamboo.
Elegant & Modern Aesthetic: The strong vertical lines of the canes combined with the delicate foliage offer a unique, graceful, and sophisticated look that suits many design styles.
Sustainable & Eco-Friendly: It is a powerful carbon sink and a rapidly renewable resource.
Year-Round Evergreen
Screening: Unlike deciduous trees, bamboo provides a dense, effective privacy screen in all four seasons.
