Giant Buddha Belly Bambusa Vulgaris ‘Wamin’

These magnificent swollen clums of this plant are intoxicating, I dare anybody to stand close to a one of these plants and not touch it. This is another outstanding plant that grows fairly well in Melbourne's climate, although the leaves will deteriorate after a long cold winter.

Warning: Buddha teaches patience!

Plants grown in Melbourne may take 10 years(if at all) to produce 'buddha' culms.
