Golden Bamboo is the classic, fast-growing bamboo known for its bright golden-yellow canes and lush green foliage. It creates a rapidly spreading screen. CRITICAL NOTE: This is a RUNNING bamboo with highly invasive roots. It must be planted with a professional-grade root barrier or in a fully contained planter to prevent it from taking over your garden and neighboring properties.

• Forms a dense screen of green leaves on attractive golden-yellow culms (canes) that provide year-round color and visual interest.

• Grows extremely rapidly both in height and by spreading underground rhizomes.

• Major Consideration: Highly invasive running habit. Uncontrolled, it can spread many feet per year. Responsible planting with containment is mandatory.

• Tolerates a wide range of conditions and is drought-tolerant once established.
