Thyrsostachys siamensis
(Monastery Bamboo)
A graceful bamboo used extensively
around monasteries in Thailand. It is a tight clumper with gracefully
drooping canes, which can bend so far they reach the ground. The
variety that we carry is the one with the extreme drooping form, as you can
see in the photo. This variety is very rare and will create a huge
bamboo shrub. The children love it, as the dome shaped shrub becomes
like a private fortress inside the arching canes.
