Introducing Shiroshima (Hibanobambusa tranquillans ‘Shiroshima’), a visually stunning bamboo variety perfect for screening purposes. Adorned with large, eye-catching cream and green variegated leaves, Shiroshima brings an artistic flair to any garden. While it may lose some of its vibrant color in winter within zone 6b, this resilient plant uniquely thrives indoors, making it versatile across climates. Ideal for USDA Zones 6b & 7, Shiroshima reaches a respectful height of 13 feet according to Almaville Bamboo Co., with the potential to grow up to 16 feet. Requiring a minimum of 2 hours of daily sunlight, it’s a splendid choice for those seeking both beauty and functionality in their outdoor spaces.

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.
As a small business, we stake our reputation on the quality of every plant that leaves the nursery. That’s why we offer a six month “if it dies… we’ll replace it” guarantee.

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.
