Phyllostachys Nigra

Phyllostachys nigra or the Black Bamboo has to be the most popular and best known of all bamboos. The jet black canes reach around 4 or 6 metres in height and are covered in masses of lush green dainty leaves. The best situation for the black bamboo is in a good, rich soil that does not dry out too readily but also does not have a tendency to waterlog over the winter months.
Eventual size: 4 to 6 m

Phyllostachys Humilis

Very hardy and attractive bamboo with culms that emerge reddish brown, turn dark green then aging to orange-yellow in sun. It is one of the shortest members of the genus but also quite active at the roots, which means it can quickly establish a dense medium height evergreen screen or hedge. Invasive.
Eventual size: 4 to 5 m
