It has distinctive arching canes that are pale-green the first year, spotted black and brown in the second and turning a deep jet-black in the third given the right conditions. A flurry of small, fresh-green leaves forms an airy canopy.\u003cbr\u003eThis plant will look stunning on its own in a zen-themed garden, or plant it with other coloured bamboo species for effect. Great for hedging, screening or in a large container also.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSite: \u003c\/b\u003eDoes not like cold winds or coastal exposure\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSoil:\u003c\/b\u003e All fertile soils, avoid waterlogged\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePosition: \u003c\/b\u003eFull sun to part shade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeason of Interest:\u003c\/b\u003e Evergreen, black canes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHardiness: \u003c\/b\u003eFully hardy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 18ft (5m) \u003cb\u003eSpread: \u003c\/b\u003e6ft (2m)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Pot | 5L \/ Collection\/oversize delivery required","offer_id":48737261158657,"sku":"ZNV0D 436706770978","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0818\/1540\/4801\/files\/Phyllostachys_nigra_Punctata_01.jpg?v=1777971736","url":"https:\/\/futureforests-us.com\/products\/phyllostachys-nigra-punctata","provider":"Future-Forests","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
