Bamboo for Screening

Bamboo is an evergreen grass that grows in clusters, making it ideal for use as a natural screen. Its tall, narrow growth habit allows bamboo to thrive in compact spaces, making it perfect for narrow garden beds, alongside fences, or in tight spaces between homes. Bamboo can be pruned and shaped to create a tidy, pleached screen or left to grow naturally for a more relaxed, tropical look.

The tall, swaying stems of bamboo, also called internodes, lend both strength and flexibility to the plant, allowing it to move gently in the breeze and bring a sense of calm and serenity to any garden. This graceful motion makes bamboo an excellent choice for those seeking to create a tranquil outdoor environment.
