Pleioblastus variegatus

Pleioblastus variegatus is a stunning dwarf bamboo prized for its eye-catching green and cream-striped foliage. Its narrow, lance-shaped leaves grow densely on slender canes, forming a bushy, low-growing clump that brings brightness and texture to shaded spots. This dwarf bamboo grows about 80 cm tall and features bold white-on-green variegated leaves. It can be used to make a very attractive planter for the terrace or in the garden as ground cover.

Thriving in moist, well-drained soil and partial shade, it also tolerates full sun with regular watering. Hardy and vigorous, it spreads steadily, so root containment is recommended for border planting. Cut back hard in early spring to encourage fresh, vibrant new growth. Pair with darker evergreens, Hostas, or ferns to make the striking variegation really pop.
