The world's largest bamboo species can grow up to 12 inches in diameter and reach heights of up to 100 feet. This hardy bamboo is well-suited for growing in USDA Hardiness Zones 9, 10, and 11, where it can withstand temperatures as low as 25 degrees Fahrenheit. Whether planted in full sun or partial shade, this versatile bamboo will thrive, although it may attain a smaller stature when grown in shaded areas.

Once this bamboo is established in your landscape, it will not require additional watering, making it a low-maintenance choice. It can be utilized effectively as a specimen plant or as an impressive hedge, providing both visual interest and practical benefits. In many Asian countries, this bamboo is commonly harvested and used as a structural timber, highlighting its diverse applications.

The bamboo plants currently available are growing in 1-gallon pots and stand at least 3 feet tall or taller. After planting in your garden, this fast-growing species will quickly reach its full mature size, transforming your outdoor space with its impressive stature and lush foliage.
