Hibanobambusa tranquillans 'Shiroshima'204 viewsA mid-size variegated species with larger, tropical looking leaves. Root hardy to USDA zone 5.
Phyllostachys aureosulcata 'Spectabilis'203 viewsThis bamboo is less cold hardy than P. nuda or bissetii, but it's still one of my favorites. Who couldn't love that striking color? It does well here in zone 5, but does top-kill a lot of winters. It returns faithfully each spring and grows to a good 15' in only a few weeks time in early to mid spring.
