Beschrijving
Phyllostachys nigra, known as the black lacquer bamboo, is distinguished by its striking black stems, also called culms. This large, evergreen bamboo grows upright and has fine green leaves. The contrast between the green leaves and the black stems makes it a real showpiece in your garden. This bamboo is versatile in use - whether as a solitary plant, evergreen hedge, or in a spacious pot or planter on your terrace or balcony.
Phyllostachys nigra is loved for its characteristic thick stems in deep black, which can also serve as support for other plants after pruning. However, it is important to know that this bamboo can be rampant. We therefore recommend using a root barrier when planting.
This bamboo thrives in both sunny and semi-shaded environments and grows well in various soil types. In addition, Phyllostachys nigra is winter hardy. The young stems start out green and gradually turn black. This allows the plant to evolve throughout the seasons and offers an ever-changing visual spectacle.
