Dwarf Striated Buddha Belly Bamboo **NON-INVASIVE, CLUMPING**

Dwarf Striped Buddha Belly Bamboo
Bambusa vulgaris 'Wamin Striata'

LIVE, WELL-ROOTED PLANT

A striated (and rarer) version of the popular Wamin Bamboo. The culms are a pale green color with irregular dark-green vertical stripes. The swollen internodes and overall form is the same as the standard Wamin. Perfect by a pond but will fit just about any landscape. Swollen internodes are unusual and are sure to attract your visitors' attention. This bamboo could have been conjured up by Tim Burton or Dr. Seuss.

Grows to 12' – 15' with up to 3" dia. culms. Min. temp 27F. Min USDA zone 9b.

Maintenance / Care- There are four conditions that optimize the growth of tropical bamboos: Sunlight, regular irrigation, good drainage, and at least occasional fertilization. If any of these conditions is lacking, the growth rate will be affected in direct proportion to the deficiency. You can certainly have a beautiful bamboo, but again, the growth rate will not be maximized.

Shipping – bamboo will be shipped in 10" nursery container. Plant will be wired to the box; heat packs will be included if needed.

***We can ship live bamboo plants to all states in the USA except HAWAII.
Live plants shipped to Hawaii must enter one-year post-entry quarantine in the Hawaii Department of Agriculture Plant Quarantine Branch. ***
