The culms of Phyllostachys aureosucata ‘Aureoculis’ are generally very upright in growth, but the lower growth will sometimes appear with striking, strongly zig-zagged internodes.

Plant Biography
Native to East China, aureosulcata is an upright growing species of bamboo with a narrow stature that makes it perfect for use as a tall privacy screen in the garden.
The ‘Aureocaulis’ cultivar is the hardiest golden-caned bamboos. The culms of this cultivar take on a lemon yellow colour at sheath fall, the time when the new shoots reach their full height in late spring.
If positioned in full-sun the golden culms of aureosulcata will become lightly tinged with colour, the hue depending on the cultivar. For Aureocaulis this is a bright magenta tint.

Care & Size Guidance
Phyllostachys aureosulcata requires little to no maintenance, though if required the plant may be thinned out and spent canes can be cut back to the ground level.
This bamboo produces underground rhizomes which aid its spreading, meaning it requires the installation of root barrier to prevent it from becoming invasive.
I received my Phyllostachys aureosulcata Aureocaulis
last year during lockdown. It was planted in a large pit that I dug out and installed a root barrier to contain the growth.
Since last year it’s really taken off and is now throwing up more shoots than I can keep track of.
The customer service and delivery was incredible and I’d highly recommend this company if you’re looking for a perfect, healthy bamboo

I ordered and received four Phyllostachys aureosulcata Aureocaulis bamboos, and they arrived safely and quickly. Stunning plants and all settling in nicely. Great customer service at the Palm Centre too, quick to answer any questions, brilliant service!

Originally bought one to see the quality of the plant supplyed, needles to say it was fantastic, stood roughly five and a half foot tall lots of protecting in its box and so good I ordered a second one!

Bought 2 of these in 2 different orders. 1st one arrived well packed and appears to be thriving – lovely bamboo.
The 2nd was packaged in a way that the taller canes were bent over and as a result three of them snapped – I lost the lovely height I had wanted and will have to wait for further growth. Again – a lovely bamboo – will just have to wait a bit longer than Id hoped for more height.
