ANGEL MIST BAMBOO

BAMBUSA MULTIPLEX ALPHONSE KARR | ALPHONSE KAR

Angel Mist Bamboo, also known as Ghost Bamboo, is an ornamental clumping bamboo that originates from Southern China. It belongs to the Dendrocalamus family, which includes giant bamboos. However, Angel Mist stands out as one of the more compact varieties within this group, making it well-suited for urban gardens.

This bamboo variety features light green or yellowish culms with dark green stripes elegantly coated in wax. The shoots initially appear with a waxy powder that gives them a striking blue hue. As they mature, the canes transition to an olive-yellow color adorned with dark green striping. The plant grows in tightly clustered formations and boasts large dark green leaves.

Angel Mist Bamboo is particularly valued for its adaptability across various landscapes and its resilience once established—it is both frost-tolerant and drought-resistant. Its absence of lower branches on mature plants makes it ideal for walkways or smaller urban gardens where it can develop into a lush canopy over time.

Overall, Angel Mist Bamboo offers a robust presence in any landscape while being fairly wind-tolerant and providing an impressive visual appeal due to its colorful culms and distinctive growth pattern.
