Bamboos for containers and planters
Discover the bamboos that are most suitable for your patio or balcony. Create an outstanding plant display or an exotic screen of greenery. To ensure the best plant development make sure the planter is as long as the adult height of the bamboo and half the width. A depth of between 60cm and 90cm will be enough. It is possible to grow the bamboo in a narrower planter but this will result in the adult size of the plant being halved.
