					Botanical name Bambusa multiplex Riviereorum. Origin South Eastern China. Characteristics A comparatively slow growing, clumping bamboo. This species will form a soft feathery hedge growing to 2.5 m. Traditionally grown by water features in Oriental gardening. Use Pot, isolated clump, hedge. Requirements This bamboo seems to have originated in Yangtze River Valley and is not suited to very cold temperatures. Chinese Goddess Bamboo softens the rock fautures around this pond. Interest Appropriate for well lit indoors with attractive culms, and dainty fern like foliage. I have seen Chinese Goddess Bamboo growing beautifully along the border of a large garden. Just tall enough for privacy, plus, from a high point inside the garden the view beyond is yours too. How fast will it grow? Our Bamboo Growth Simulation gizmo shows you the rate of growth starting off with a small plant. Of course, growth rate depends a lot on climate, food and water. Small bamboo plants are slow to get going, so starting off with a bigger plant will get you there much faster. Also, using the gizmo will show you the eventual, un-trimmed shape in outline for this species. 112 Kb. Image 96.8 Kb. Image 78.1 Kb. Image 82 Kb. Image
