Planting A Blue Henon Bamboo Tree Is A Great Idea

By Ruthie Calderon


Many people like to plant different shrubs or trees in order to add more privacy to their gardens. Generally the faster growing plants are the more popular as not many people want to wait for many years for this cover to become apparent. One plant that many are turning to is the blue henon bamboo tree as it can grow as tall as thirty feet and very quickly.

As they become older the poles turn from a green colour and a grey and a wax like dust forms. If they are planted in a shady area they will change into a sky blue colour. They are able to grow to six inches in diameter and many use them in the makings of furniture.

The Phyllostachys Nigra or the Henon Giant Gray can grow to very great heights and is also able to grow in many shaded areas as well. It seems to also do very well where the soil is poor and the watering is infrequent. This one is very hardy and as it ages the canes will change from an olive green to grey in colour. The canes are of high quality when it comes to wood and is frequently sought after by craftsmen.

The price for the fourteen inch wide clump will be about one hundred and fifty four dollars and the ten inch will set one back just over seventy seven dollars. The eight inch wide is about fifty two dollars and the six inch is only twenty eight dollars twenty five. Shipping costs on all of the above do apply and the shipping methods that can be used are UPS Ground or Motor Freight.

Bamboos are fairly easy to plant as they are upright and don't need a lot of space around them. Many people will grow them so that they can make their own fishing poles instead of spending lots of money buying one. They also come in handy when one needs a sturdy upright pole to help climbers in other parts of the garden.

Many weapons have also been made out of these and are still used in Asian martial arts. The bamboo staff has one end sharpened and is used in the art silambam. In Indian culture the stave is used for gatka and is mainly used because it is light in weight. They are also popular in the making of the bow in archery and bow-hunting.

The Robert Young Bamboo Plant has a very fast growth speed and tends to spread just as quick. Its canes are variegated with bright tallow and green stripes. It will resemble a weeping bamboo when at its full height which can be about thirty five feet. The prices will vary when it comes to the width of the shoot clump.

For those that want a complete cover but live in very cold areas, the Black Bamboo is the one to choose. They are able to survive when the temperatures hit below twenty degrees. They can be planted in any landscape and will also grow very tall. The leaves are of a bright green and the canes can either be yellow or green variegated.
