| Highest bamboo in Europe (25m) but unfortunately not suited to our climate; P. kwangsiensis was a fine alternative for large gardens but began to flower in 2010. Needs even more fertiliser and water than other bamboos. After 10 years this plant is still 1.50 m tall in my garden. A hardy clone called 'Bokrijk' did not grow well. Other clones from the Bambouseraie (Anduze) and from Japan are under observation. Phyllostachys requires plenty of water and manure during the growing season. This plant can be found in the botanical garden in the following locations:
