#3) Bambusa multiplex 'Eddie Gaedel': A full sun clumping bamboo with a mostly vertical, growth habit. Canes are gold colored with random vertical green stripes. It grows to a maximum of 6-8 feet tall in the Sacramento Valley and up to about 6 feet tall in the SF Bay area. The canes grow to a maximum diameter of about 3/4 of an inch. This is a relatively new bamboo to the nursery trade and has ony been available for about 10 years. It has cold tolerance about the same as other Bambusa multiplexes. This bamboo was first discovered by Luen Miller as a dwarf sport found within a grove of Bambusa multiplex 'Alphonse Karr.' Luan describes this bamboo as follows: Besides being much shorter than 'Alphonse Karr', it is more compact and extremely dense. It appears to have a "Buddha's Belly" style stem-base swelling, with very short internodes and similar zig-zag culms, especially near the base. Most plantings will reach 5-7' within a few years. Few will grow taller except under optimum conditions or reaching for light. The tops of the youngest fine stems grow heavy with dense plumes of new foliage arch slightly outwards as they mature, conspicuously and gracefully, eventually forming what looks like a very tall, very dense, very dark green clump grass, always with a few of those distinctive, typical bluish B. multiplex leaf-undersides showing. This makes an excellent and long-term container plant or short to medium screen, easily kept to 3-4' by pruning out the few taller culms. Best in full sun.		-	-		We have GIANT magnificent 25 gallon plants in stock. Please call for pricing. in stock on 10-13-2025
#4) Bambusa multiplex 'Midori Green': A full sun clumping bamboo with a mostly vertical growth habit. Canes are gold colored with random vertical green stripes.

This is a common clumping bamboo used in the residential landscape. Minimum USDA Zone 8B.		-	-	15 gallon: $175 each	20 and 25 gallon: Please call for pricing
#4-B) Bambusa multiplex 'Silverstripe': A full sun clumping bamboo with a sprawling growth habit, the plants tend to become very wide and lean out in Northern California. It grows about 12 to 15 feet tall with canes up to 1 inch in diameter when mature in Northern California (larger in So. Cal.). The leaves show a striking white variegation when freshly grown and the canes also show an occasional vertical white stripe. Rated to 18 °F by the American Bamboo Society. Minimum USDA Zone 8B.		-	-	15 gallon for $175
#4-C) Bambusa multiplex 'Wavy Goldstripe': A full sun clumping bamboo. This bamboo grows to 20' tall with canes up to 1.25" in diameter and is cold tolerant to 18 °F. Daniel James Nurco isolated this material from Bambusa multiplex 'Eddie Gaedel' that started growing some green canes and we have been growing The Wavy Goldstripe for over 5 years and it is a stable new cultivar. It bears marked similarities to the green form of Bambusa multiplex and also to Bambusa multiplex 'Goldstripe'. This bamboo has dark green canes and a vertical growth habit with minimal but occasional vertical gold stripes similar to those on Bambusa multiplex 'Goldstripe'. Many of the canes will show no gold stripes and when the stripes are present they are small so this bamboo's canes are predominantly dark green. A particular difference between this bamboo and most other bamboos is the "Wavy" shape of some of the canes which presents itself as a Sine Wave shape on the bottom 4' or so of many of the canes. As with other Bambusa multiplexes this is a wind tolerant cultivar. Minimum USDA Zone 8B.		-	5 gallon pots for $80 -		-
#5) Bambusa oldhamii (Giant Timber Bamboo): A full sun clumping bamboo with a vertical growth habit. A typical height for this bamboo in the Sacramento area is 30 - 40 feet tall. In the SF Bay area it tends to grow to about 30 feet tall. Rated to 21 °F by the American Bamboo Society. If you want a clumping bamboo with the largest diameter canes possible in Northern California this is the bamboo for you. If you are considering this bamboo please also consider Bambusa textilis. Both of these clumping timber bamboos occupy a similar niche in the residential landscape and they both grow to approximately the same height. For many reasons we here at Davis Bamboo Nursery believe that Bambusa textilis is a much nicer looking and more suitable bamboo for residental plantings. Our reasons for thinking that Bambusa textilis is generally superior to Bambusa oldhamii include that the textilis: 1) is easier to maintain (translating to lower maintenance fees over the years), 2) shows an attractive powdery blue color on the new bamboo canes, 3) is a bit more cold tolerant, and 4) it has smaller leaves that do not get torn by winter winds (because of the wind in the Sacramento area oldhamii tends to look a bit raggy for about 3 months in the late winter and early spring ~ textilis looks great all year). Minimum USDA Zone 9A.		-	-	-	-
#6) Bambusa sp. 'Hirose': Very similar to Bambusa oldhamii, although it grows with incrementally larger canes which in some cases grow up to 6 inches in diameter (oldhamii maxes out at 4 inches in diameter). This is a rare bamboo which is not well known. Minimum USDA Zone 8B.		1 gallon for $75	5 gallon pots for $95 - $150	-	-
#7) Bambusa textilis (Weaver's Bamboo): Bambusa textilis is a larger statured clumping bamboo with dark green canes and a vertical growth habit. The new canes frequently show an attractive powdery blue coloration. This bamboo produces a very dense wall of bare canes up to about 10 feet high, as shown in the picture to the right, with a canopy of canes and leaves above 10 feet. We call this growth habit the "Wall of Canes" look. The wall of bamboo canes provides privacy at the lower heights (below 10 feet) and the canopy of leaves and canes provide privacy higher up (above 10 feet). Once the plants fill in densely with canes they provide privacy from the ground level up to the top of the plants at 30 to 40 feet high. The bamboo canes grow to the somewhat large diameter of 2 inches wide. Full sun is preferred and this bamboo is rated to 18 °F by the American Bamboo Society. Minimum USDA Zone 8B.

#10-B) Bambusa textilis 'Dwarf' (Common Names: Dwarf Gracilis, Dwarf Graceful Bamboo (RG), RG Dwarf, Weaver's Bamboo Dwarf, Dwarf Weaver's Bamboo, Textilis Dwarf): A full sun clumping bamboo with a mostly vertical growth habit. A cultivar of Bambusa textilis that is shorter and less erect than Bambusa textilis. One can expect The Dwarf Gracilis to grow 15' - 20' tall with 1.3" diameter canes in the SF Bay Area and the Sacramento Valley. In comparison to Bambusa textilis 'Gracilis' the Bambusa textilis 'Dwarf' has fatter and darker green canes, more of an open clumping growth habit, and tends to grow 3 to 5 feet shorter. This is a great bamboo for property line privacy screening. This bamboo originated from a Bambusa textilis seedling that Roy Works sold to Rockledge Gardens in Florida and they have been selling it for over a decade as a dwarf version of textilis and it has remained about half the size of regular Bambusa textilis. Rated to 18 °F by the American Bamboo Society. Minimum USDA Zone 8B.

#10-C) Bambusa textilis 'Moriensis' (Preliminary Common Name: Green and Gold Striped Textilis): A full sun clumping bamboo with a mostly vertical growth habit. A cultivar of Bambusa textilis that grows about 25' tall with canes up to 1.5" in diameter. This bamboo is special due to it's striking dark green and golden striping pattern observed on it's bamboo canes, as shown in the images. This bamboo cultivar originated from a Bambusa textilis plant slated for removal from a residence in Santa Rosa. Most of the 4' wide x 20' tall plant was growing in the normal Bambusa textilis form and there were about 6 canes clustered together that exhibited the striping. Daniel Nurco and Jesus Mora proceeded to dig out the entire plant and made propagules form all of the material, including the striped canes and their rhizomes. From this material numerous plants grew with the striped effect and 4 of them were grown in the ground for 7+ years in Santa Rosa giving us the data on how this new cultivar grows. This material is exceptionally rare and we have it available for purchase. The cold tolerance is similar to Bambusa textilis.

#11) Bambusa textilis 'Scranton': A full sun clumping bamboo with a vertical growth habit. Great for privacy screening. In the Sacramento Valley it tends to grow to about 20' with 1.3" diameter canes if well watered and given full sun, shorter if water is used sparingly or if the plants get less than a full day of direct sun. Typical S.F. Bay area height is about 17' with good water and sun. The canes start out dark green and if exposed to direct sun the green fades to a lighter color approaching a golden yellow over time. This feature of fading green canes happens for all green caned bamboos although it happens more so for The Scranton. Rated to 18 °F by the American Bamboo Society. Minimum USDA Zone 8B.

#12) Bambusa 'Ventricosa' (Buddha Belly Bamboo): A full sun clumping bamboo. Great for indoors with good sun. When grown outdoors in the Sacramento Valley with ample water it grows to about 30' high and spreads out very wide. This bamboo only shows the Buddha Bellies if starved for water. For customers wanting the Buddha Effect we recommend Bambusa tuldoides 'Swollen Internode' (Cool Buddha) which reliably grows canes with the Buddha Effect regardless of the amount of water used for irrigation. We recommend against using this bamboo for property line privacy screening. The plants do not have a vertical growth habit and will grow over the fence and drape substantially onto the other side. Additionally, this is an open clumper and it will overgrow spaces next to the fence more rapidly than tighter clumping bamboos we sell for privacy (i.e. Graceful Weaver's Bamboo and Dwarf Graceful Bamboo). Rated to 21 °F by the American Bamboo Society. Minimum USDA Zone 9A.		-	5 gallon -	-	25 gallon pots with the Buddha Effect: $750
#13) Bambusa ventricosa 'Kimmei'. A full sun clumping bamboo. Great for indoors with good sun. When grown outdoors in the Sacramento Valley with ample water it grows to about 30' high and spreads out very wide. This bamboo only shows the Buddha Bellies if starved for water. The Buddha Kimmei is a bit more reliable at growing Buddha Effect canes compared to the green form of Buddha Belly Bamboo. For customers wanting the Buddha Effect we recommend Bambusa tuldoides 'Swollen Internode' (Cool Buddha) which reliably grows canes with the Buddha Effect regardless of the amount of water used for irrigation. We recommend against using Buddha Belly Bamboo or Buddha Kimmei bamboo for property line privacy screening. The plants do not have a vertical growth habit and will grow over the fence and drape substantially onto the other side. Additionally, this is an open clumper and it will overgrow spaces next to the fence more rapidly than tighter clumping bamboos we sell for privacy (i.e. Graceful Weaver's Bamboo and Dwarf Graceful Bamboo).		-	-	-	25 gallon pots with the Buddha Effect: $750
