Overview

Bambusa textilis, or Weaver's Bamboo, is a clumping bamboo valued for its slender, upright growth reaching up to 40 feet tall, with a diameter up to 1.5 inches. Its dense foliage and fine-textured culms make it ideal for privacy screens or elegant focal points. Hardy in USDA zones 8b-11, it thrives in full sun to part shade, requiring moderate water. Minimal lower branching allows for ease of maintenance and clean design lines.
