Design Ideas | Bamboo is among the primary signature plants of Asian inspired gardens. It is also equally at home in tropical island design themes. In the landscape it can be used as a clump of vertical poles for a columnar element or planted in mass for a fast growing barrier, screen or privacy hedge between properties. The clumping, non-invasive habit of Golden Goddess make it an easy, low maintenance choice for homeowners. Pruned properly these plants are spectacular with night lighting trained on their golden canes which cast exotic, striped shadows in the garden. Bamboo is quite adaptable to containers provided it is given adequate water and nitrogen to sustain vigorous growth and an overall lush appearance. |
Foliage Color | Green |
Companion Plants | Japanese Maple (Acer); Azalea (Azalea); Lily of the Valley (Pieris); Peony (Paeonia); Pachysandra (Pachysandra) |
Care | Provide organically rich, loamy, well-drained, moist soil. Water deeply and regularly during the first growing season to establish an extensive root system; once established, water regularly to maintain consistently moist soil. Feed with a general purpose fertilizer before new growth begins in spring. |
