Costa Rican Weeping (Chusquea coronalis)
Starting at $77
One of the most beautiful bamboos with very fine whorls of tiny, dainty leaves at the culm (pole) nodes, appearing like crowns. The slender, gracefully arching solid culms reach back to the ground to create a fluffy, soft clump. A wonderful specimen for pots, especially around a pond or water feature. Ideal for screening. Native to the mountains of South & Central America.
Height: 3-4m
Planting: Best in light shade in hot areas and full sun in cooler climates. Grows in a wide range of reasonably drained soils. Best growth period is spring/summer.
Maintenance: Likes regular water, but fairly drought tolerant once established. Fertilise in spring and summer. Prune culms (poles) or new shoots at ground level to maintain desired appearance.
