Bamboo Plants

Bamboo plants (Phyllostachys) are a popular choice for garden screening and partitioning or for creating a decorative ornamental feature in the garden. Although fast growing, Bamboo is easy to grow, suprisingly low maintenance and incredibly versatile; Bamboo plants will grow just as happily in large pots or planters as planted in. Bamboo is also extremely hardy and adapts very well to the UK climate.

Bamboo plants, with their architectural form and gentle swaying movement, create an air of tranquility and peace, giving your outside space a hint of the exotic, whilst also providing a calming space. Being evergreen, Bamboo plants retain their leaves all year round making them a firm favourite for privacy screening in particular.

Each part of the bamboo plant has character and visual interest, from the long slender leaves to the coloured canes (culms), which can be bright green, golden or even a striking black depending on the variety. Hedges Direct has several different varieties to choose from and something to suit every balcony, patio or garden.
