Collector's Bamboo

PLEASE NOTE: This is a list of the rarer or less popular species of bamboo. Some of these species may only be available upon request (ie. we will propagate to order). We have them growing in our plantation, but not necessarily available as potted plants for immediate sale. 

Since these species are not in regular production, they are more expensive. However, if significant quantities are required, then prices can be negotiated.
