Golden Goddess Bamboo (Bambusa multiplex 'Golden Goddess')

This is the perfect bamboo for smaller gardens and containers. It forms a tight, non-invasive clump of graceful, arching culms (stems) that mature to a beautiful golden-yellow with green stripes. The delicate, fern-like foliage adds a soft, tropical texture. Easily maintained under 8 feet tall with occasional pruning. Evergreen in zones 8–10; root-hardy to zone 7 with protection.

Growing Conditions

• Light: Full sun to partial sun.
• Water: Moderate; regular watering for best growth. Drought tolerant once established.
• Height: 5–10 feet (can be kept shorter).
• Spread: 7–12 feet (clumping, non-running).

Care Tips

Prune to desired height in late winter. Fertilize in spring with high-nitrogen fertilizer. Provide winter mulch in zone 7. Excellent container plant for patios and decks.

Landscape Uses

Privacy screen for small spaces, container specimen, Asian-style gardens, tropical accents. Non-invasive clumping habit makes it safe near structures.
