Arrow

Meet Arrow (Pseudosasa japonica), a robust screening bamboo valued for its versatility and distinct characteristics. Known for its larger-than-average dark green leaves that transition to tan in winter (in zone 6b areas), Arrow makes a dramatic statement in any garden, recovering its lush greenery each spring. Its long, slender canes with few branches reach up to 25 feet, making it a favorite among survivalists and archery enthusiasts for crafting arrows and bolts. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, Arrow’s durability enables it to serve as an effective saltwater windbreak. Exceptionally hardy to 5°F and thriving in USDA Zone 7 with minimal sunlight (1 hour daily), this bamboo stands out for its ability to flourish in shady areas, offering a unique solution for challenging landscapes.

Hand-Dug For Healthier Plants

At Almaville Bamboo Company, we pride ourselves on our meticulous approach to harvesting bamboo by hand-digging all our plants. Unlike our competitors, who often rely on mechanical equipment, our skilled gardeners use sharp shovels to carefully cut the rhizomes. This precision ensures that the tender buds beneath the surface are preserved, not harmed during extraction. This method is crucial as it maintains the integrity of the root ball, ensuring it remains as healthy as possible. A well-preserved root ball is vital for fostering robust growth and a high yield of baby bamboo shoots once replanted. Our commitment to hand-digging reflects our dedication to providing our customers with the highest quality bamboo plants that are primed for exceptional growth and longevity.

Vehicle Loading & Towing Recommendations

To give you an idea of what you can carry, we typically load 25 Adult Screening Plants in a long bed pickup truck or 20 in a 6-1/2′ bed. You can get 80-85 plants on a double axle 16 foot trailer.

You will need a tailgate or ramps or need to build some elevation on the back of your trailer.

If you don’t have a tarp, we can cover the plants for you- we have successfully had plants make it to Colorado, Maryland, Michigan and Florida covered with carpet backing or “Leno.”

If you expect your order to be greater than 20 plants, please call ahead so we can be sure of availability of your particular species. We prefer to stabilize the newly dug plants for 2 weeks.
