Phyllostachys aurea

Phyllostachys aurea, commonly known as Golden Bamboo, is a tall, fast-growing bamboo prized for its upright canes that mature to a rich golden-yellow hue. Its lush green foliage and elegant, vertical growth make it a popular choice for screening, privacy planting, and creating a tropical aesthetic in gardens. This clump-forming bamboo brings height and movement to planting schemes while remaining manageable with regular maintenance.

Golden Bamboo thrives in moist, well-drained soils and prefers a sunny to partially shaded position. Once established, it is hardy and resilient, tolerating a variety of soil types and weather conditions. Although it is a running bamboo, root barrier systems or container planting help control its spread, making it suitable for both large and small landscapes.

Ideal for contemporary garden designs, naturalistic borders, or exotic planting schemes, Phyllostachys aurea adds year-round interest with its golden stems and dense foliage. It’s also excellent for urban spaces where fast-growing, stylish screening is required.
