Bambusa textilis 'Gracilis' (Graceful Weaver's Bamboo, Slender Weaver's Bamboo): The Gracilis is a small statured clumping bamboo with green canes forming tight dense clumps with a vertical growth habit and nodding cane tops. The younger canes frequently show an attractive powdery blue color. In the Sacramento Valley and the SF Bay area it grows 20 feet tall with canes up to 1.25 inches in diameter. This bamboo creates an ideal privacy screen or hedge when planted on 3 foot to 6 foot centers. When planting the Gracilis next to a 6 foot fence it will reliably provide a dense screen of leaves above the fence line to provide privacy. Full sun is preferred and this bamboo is rated to 18 °F by the American Bamboo Society. We recommend planting each Bambusa textilis 'Gracilis' plant in the middle of a 3 foot or larger diameter circle of soil dedicated to the plant. Additional planting details applicable to this and other "Smaller Statured Clumping Bamboos" are given on our Bamboo For Privacy page on this website.
