Growing & Caring for Slender Weavers Bamboo

Low-maintenance and adaptable, Bambusa textilis gracilis slender weavers bamboo thrives in a range of New Zealand climates.

Regular watering during establishment helps your bamboo settle in, but once matured, it’s impressively drought-tolerant. Occasional feeding in spring will keep your stand lush and vigorous, while pruning old stems encourages fresh, green growth. Containment is rarely needed due to its non-invasive clumping nature.
