Timor Black Bambusa lako

DIS-CONTINUED due to poor performance in Melbournes' climate.

I do not beleive it is worth the effort!

Challenging to grow well in Melbourne's climate, although it can be done. Requires a warm location with good drainage and a wind protected position. Foliage will look very 'shabby' by the end of winter but will rejuvinate by the end of spring.
