Phyllostachys bissetii

Bisset's Bamboo

Bamboos are fantastic shrubs that can be used in a whole range of different ways to create stunning results in your garden.

Evergreens can be ideal if you're looking to create an attractive year-round privacy screen. With their distinctive, exotic look, these plants will give you that jungle feel in your garden.

Phyllostachys Bissetii are the best hedge for windy spots compared to the other bamboo they form a nice dense hedge. They have dark green, narrow leaves and canes.

Height can reach between 4-8m. Grow in well-drained soil, in sun or part shade, and propagate by dividing the bamboo clumps. Feeding bamboo can be done in late spring and summer with a general-purpose granular fertiliser and renew the mulch layer.

Phyllostachys, a popular running bamboo, is favoured for its fast growth rate and dense clump formation. This stiffly upright bamboo features grooved canes that begin as bright mid-green and mature to brown-yellow, complemented by narrow, pointed, yellowish to golden-green leaves.

Where should I site my Phyllostachys?

Plant this bamboo in the sun to partial shade, using fertile, moisture-retentive yet well-draining soil. It can withstand colder weather and thrive in sunny conditions but should be protected from cold and drying winds, especially in coastal areas. If growing in pots, ensure regular feeding and watering, maintaining soil moisture without allowing it to become waterlogged.

As this type of bamboo can grow up to 8 meters tall in ideal situations, it is best to plant it alone, as it will quickly form a well-established hedge or screening.

Growth and Pruning

Since this bamboo variety grows slightly faster, it will require more frequent pruning to prevent it from becoming invasive.

To keep the bamboo manageable and healthy, remove weak, dead, or damaged canes down to ground level throughout the year and clear debris from the base. Enhance the appearance of the canes by removing lower foliage, either by snapping offside branches or cutting them with secateurs. This helps improve airflow and promotes growth. In spring, it's normal for leaves to yellow and drop as new growth appears, though some old leaves may remain attached, turning brown and papery.

Characteristics

  • Clump forming stiffy upright canes, start off green then turn brown/yellow as the plant matures
  • Narrow Pointed evergreen golden/green foliage
  • Can grow between 2.5-8 metres tall
  • Winter Hardy, protect from dry and cold winds
