This rare and eye-catching form of Yellow Groove Bamboo features bright golden-yellow culms. Its upright, slightly zig-zag growth at the base gives it a unique, architectural flair.

Phyllostachys aureosulcata Laura Kemple is known for its vigorous, clumping-like habit and tolerance to a range of conditions, including wind and moderate frost making it well-suited to many parts of New Zealand. 

It thrives in full sun to part shade and can reach heights of 4–8 metres, depending on conditions and containment.
