Room cultivation and ornamental value of Bamboo

March 3rd, 2008

In tub-gardening usually use Bamboo multiplex, with its graceful forms and Bambusa multiplex f. Variegate, which reach 2-4 meters in height; Bamboo multiplex had attractive white-motley leaves. For pot-gardening use brachytic forms which height does not exceed 30-40 centimeters, as Bambusa glaucescens.

Ornamental value of bamboos is in their transparent branchy verdure, due to which they are well combined with many large-leaved plants.

Leaves are on short petioles; they can be linear or spear-shaped and have different width. Flowers are fine, collected in large panicles. Bamboos are - monocarpic plants: they perish after flowering.
