Bambusa Multiplex "Alphonse Karr"

Alphonse Karr Bamboo is a colorful, clumping bamboo prized for its bright yellow culms accented with intermittent green stripes. New shoots often emerge with pink tones before maturing, adding extra visual interest. It forms a dense, upright screen ideal for privacy, hedging, or ornamental accents. Thriving in full sun to partial shade, it prefers well-drained soil with regular irrigation during establishment. Its non-invasive habit and vibrant striping make it one of the most attractive and versatile bamboo varieties for landscape use.
