FAQs
The best time to plant hardy bamboo in the UK is spring or early autumn. This allows the bamboo to establish roots before winter or summer heat. While bamboo can be planted almost any time of the year, avoiding frozen ground is crucial.
YES. We specifically only sell bamboo plants which are capable of surviving the harsh climate we experience here in North East Scotland. We often see temperatures plummet to below -15 degrees celsius each winter. The only bamboo plant here at the nursery which we watch when temperatures are set to get to these extreme sub-zero temperatures is the beautifulChimonobambusa Tumidissinoda. We specifically keep this one in containers so it can be given some extra protection in these circumstances. It is hardy to minus 13 degrees celcius - probably fine for 95% of the UK! Such a beautiful bamboo, it is a must for us to have so the extra care is well worth it!
YES! We specialise in the specific genus of bamboo called FARGESIA. ALL Fargesia bamboo are classified as clumping / non-invasive / non-running. Fargesia bamboo have a pachymorph rhizome system which means that they have clumping roots. This means the root system stays in one area and doesn’t travel far (like running bamboo does). So, you don’t have to worry about barriers and the bamboo taking over your neighbour’s garden. Fargesia bamboo are also classified as 'short-medium' height bamboo, most of them will mature under 12ft / 4 metres.
YES! All the hardy varieties of bamboo we supply are evergreen, they keep their leaves all year round. They do however naturally shed around 10-15% of their leaves between Autumn and Spring allowing for fresh new leaves to come through from Spring into Summer. You will therefore see an amount of yellow fallen leaves at the base of your bamboo plant, this provides the plant with essential nutrients for the following growing season so it is best left to naturally mulch around the roots.
Although all our bamboo plants are very hardy, young plants can benefit from winter protection during their first winter especially when relatively juvenille. This can be a form of wind protection or some horticultural fleece loosly wrapped over the plant. Some mature plants can suffer some winter damage to the top growth but they are usually fully root hardy and will recover the following growing season.
