Since buying Fern Forest Nursery last year I have been converted to the wonders and joys of bamboo. We stock many varieties suitable for Adelaide conditions, and there are lots of mature plants in the garden to prove how wonderful bamboo really is. The photo features China Gold bamboo growing in our carpark garden, and it is a fantastic decorative plant excellent as a feature or screen in suburban backyards. It has bright yellow canes (culms), with a green stripe, and thick green leaves which sometimes sport a stripe of their own. It is quite robust, will grow in full sun or part shade, and it's gorgeous yellow canes look fantastic in front of the cream coloured fence panels. China Gold bamboo grows to about 3 metres in Adelaide conditions and will reach full height in about 18 months, and mature size in about 3 years given the right conditions. It is truly beautiful!
