Phyllostachys nigra 'Bory' - Snakeskin Bamboo

* Max height 50’ (Estimated West Coast Maximum Height 35 feet) * Max culm diameter 3" * Min. temp -23C * Sun/Shade * Running Bamboo *

Bory is a little known form of black bamboo that deserves wide recognition. The culms are not pure black but instead develop spots or patches of dark color. When the culms are cut and seasoned, the green sections turn a straw color, and the spots show cloudlike shades of brown and ebony. In Japan this bamboo is used for teahouse rafters and special utensils. Some feel this bamboo has terrific potential for specialty pole production such as fishing poles. (1 gallon $37.00, 2 gallon $52.00, 3 gallon $74.00, 5 gallon $95.00, 7 gallon $115.00)
