Bambusa multiplex 'Alphonse Karr' (Alphonse Karr Clumping Bamboo)

Sun to Part SunZone: 7b-10 240" tall Origin: China

We simply adore this stunning clumping bamboo that makes an 18' tall clump (35' in more tropical areas) of 1" diameter canes, vertically striped gold and green. We have observed slight foliage burn at 10 degrees F and some cane dieback at 8 degrees F. While we also have had clumps die to the ground at 0 degrees F, they have always resprouted nicely when summer warmth arrived, although it takes a few years to recover their full size.
