Alphonse Karr

Bambusa multiplex sp.

Alphonse Karr has 1 inch canes, cold hardy to 18° and grows to 20 feet. This bamboo variety is the most colorful of all the multiplex cultivars in existence and likes to show off its bright yellow culms with irregular dark green stripes. This non-invasive bamboo creates an almost impenetrable hedge with a relatively compact footprint allowing for versatile use in smaller landscapes as well as larger properties.
