Alphonse Karr is a small golden bamboo perfect as an ornamental feature or a light privacy screen in garden beds or pots and troughs. It has beautiful green and gold striped culms with attractive bushy green foliage. Alphonse Karr will naturally grow between 3-4mtrs in height and can be easily trimmed down in height if need be .
It has naturally vase shaped growth, narrow at the base and a fan at the top. The new shoots emerge as a pretty pink/reddish colour that fade to gold over a few months. The natural footprint size of the clump is 1mtr however this wonderful species can be planted into narrow garden beds or maintained smaller to suit your needs, down to a minimum of 50cm. It can be ornamental or a light privacy screen. Alphonse Karr thrives in cooler climates and can be prone to sooty mold in humid conditions.
Clumping bamboo grow circular, so plant them the same distance apart as the width you have available. Eg. if your planting trench is 80cm wide, you would plant them 80cm apart to form a dense screen. The narrower the space, the closer you plant the bamboo together.
