Bamboo Hedging

Bamboo is a great option for creating a privacy screen or hedge in your garden. In fact, most bamboo will work well as a hedge or screen, and your choice of which variety to use really depends on your personal requirements such as desired height, density, garden / location and conditions of the site (i.e. coastal, windy, sunny, shaded).

Here at Scottish Bamboo our most popular hedging choices are:

1) Phyllostachys Bisettii - creates a very hardy dense dark green hedge, quick to mature, vigorous growth.
2) Phyllostachys Aurea - a lovely bright and ornamental screen with golden green culms.
3) Fargesia Robusta - a stately bamboo with colourful qualities, quick growing, well behaved and robust as the name suggests.
4) Pseudosasa Japonica - a broad-leaved bamboo creating a tropical feeling screen. Plentiful foliage making a dense and tough bamboo screen.
5) Fargesia Dracocephala - a nice short-medium height bamboo for screening commonly known as the hardy dragon bamboo.
