A Contemporary Solution

Blocks of land are getting smaller, but the desire for beautiful gardens and ample screening between properties hasn't. That's where South Island Bamboo comes in.

We are dedicated growers of Bamboo textilis Gracilis, otherwise known as Slender Weaver's Bamboo. This non-invasive, fast growing plant can grow in a narrow footprint, has beautiful foliage, doesn’t require trimming, is pest free, pet friendly and tolerant of frost, wind, sun and shade. To put it simply, there is no other plant that will allow you to screen a two-storey building in a narrow footprint in a short space of time.
