Description: Phyllostachys Aurea, better known as Golden Bamboo, is a fast-growing, hardy plant that is widely used in gardening for its beauty and versatility. Its most striking feature is its golden-coloured stems, which bring a touch of elegance and exoticism to the environment.

Ideal for gardens or as an indoor plant, bamboo can be grown in pots or directly in the ground, creating a natural barrier or lush decoration in outdoor spaces.

Light: It prefers bright indirect light, but can also tolerate some exposure to direct sunlight, especially during the cooler hours of the day.

Watering: It needs moderate watering, keeping the soil slightly damp at all times. It should be watered more frequently in the warmer months.

Average height: around 2 metres

Pet Friendly: Not toxic to pets.

Fun fact: Phyllostachys Aurea is one of the most popular varieties of bamboo due to its rapid growth and ability to adapt to different types of soil and light conditions.

This bamboo is highly prized in oriental cultures, symbolising luck, prosperity and strength. It is also a hardy plant that can be used both indoors and outdoors.
