Yushania Maculata Bamboo
The Yushania maculata is a fairly new introduction from Yunnan and Sichuan China. It has very distinctive blue grey culms (canes) that eventually fade to green. Its narrow glossy green leaves are sparsely scattered on its canes giving it an open appearance, exposing its beautiful colors. Tolerates light shade to full sun. It is very hardy and tolerates windy conditions. Though it is considered a clumping bamboo, it does tend to spread like a running bamboo.
