GIANT BUDDHA
BELLY STRIATA
STRIPED VERSION OF BUDDHA
(Bambusa vulgaris 'Wamin Striata')
Giant Buddha Belly Striata is a part of our unique & unusual bamboo range of which we have a small selection available. These beautiful species of bamboo are not the popular types that sell on mass, but rather the specialised rarer varieties for bamboo enthusiasts and collectors.
Giant Buddha Belly Striata is the striped version of the well known Giant Buddha Belly. It tends to be a slightly smaller plant in footprint size and a little shorter. It is an ornamental feature with stems and bow and arch in a unique way. The centre of the clump can be cleaned out for a garden 'room' or for a table and chairs! It can also be topiaried, meaning trimmed shorter and cleaned out for an almost "bonsai" effect.
​
It is fairly quick growing and extremely low maintenance once established. It is also very drought tolerant, so perfect for acreage.
​
Follow our bamboo planting guide (provided with your purchase) to achieve the best results. The guides are helpful and easy to follow, and assist you in achieving the best results in the shortest amount of time. Most of the effort in growing your bamboos is preparation and the first few months after planting.

The approximate size of bamboo is only a guide. Plant measurements are taken from the bottom of the pot. ​
The sizing of plants does vary, particularly through different seasons of the year.
The most valuable part of the bamboo is the rootball size within the pots, which produces incredibly fast growth once planted.
