A spreading dwarf bamboo native to Japan, Sasa veitchii has dark green leaves which gradually wither and turn an attractive creamy-straw colour around the leaf edge. This gives the leaves a wonderful mottled appearance and is particularly eye-catching in winter. Superb as a ground cover plant!

  • Position: Full sun or shade.
  • Soil: Well drained, fertile soil.
  • Hardiness: Hardy.
  • Rate of Growth: Vigorous.
  • Habit: Spreading ground cover bamboo.
    • Height: 1.5 - 2.5 m (5 - 8 ft)
