Bambusa Textilis Gracilis
The best type of bamboo for screening. Beyond screening, Gracilis bamboo brings texture and grace to ornamental borders, foundation plantings and container displays. Its vertical habit is striking as a solitary specimen. Consider underplanting with flowering perennials for year-round visual interest. Gracilis bamboo adapts well to mixed plantings and helps create an attractive, multi-seasonal landscape.

Gracilis Bamboo Proven Performance
Customers love Gracilis bamboo for its reliability and resilience. Once established, it withstands hot sun, cold temperatures, high winds and periods of dry weather better than more delicate plants. This tolerance for varying conditions makes it a versatile and low-maintenance choice. Gracilis bamboo can thrive with minimal care, saving customers time and effort compared to other species that demand perfect growing conditions.
Gracilis Bamboo Care Best Practices
To boost establishment and encourage maximum growth potential, we recommend amending the soil with compost or other organic matter prior to planting Gracilis bamboo. This improves drainage and provides crucial nutrients as the clump develops. Water deeply 1-2 times per week during the first hot, dry summer to help new roots establish deeply in the soil profile. Once established, no additional fertiliser is needed. Pruning periodically helps maintain the desired shape and size while encouraging the thickening of the clump centre. Gracilis bamboo remains evergreen through the winter seasons.
Sourcing Quality Gracilis Bamboo Stock
We source our Gracilis bamboo solely from trusted, local growers with decades of experience specialising in bamboo cultivation. The mature clumps are carefully divided using expert horticultural techniques to provide only the most vigorous, robust divisions for sale. This harvesting method gives customers a major head start on rapid establishment compared to immature, mass-produced stock from inexperienced suppliers. Customers can feel confident they are purchasing premiere planting material suited to thrive.
Check Our Bamboo Varieties
At Red Cloud Bamboo, we offer both clumping and running bamboo varieties suitable for a variety of landscaping needs. Clumping bamboos grow in dense clusters and are contained within the root zone, making them a great option for smaller gardens and containers. They require less maintenance while providing an attractive addition. Meanwhile, our running bamboos spread more rapidly both above and below ground. Without proper confinement, they can become invasive. However, running bamboos are well-suited for privacy screening when contained appropriately. Both bamboo types add an elegant natural element to landscapes when planted in optimised conditions.
