Bamboo Collection

• The hollow canes can be harvested to provide support for other plants in your garden.
• Remove flower spikes to discourage further blooms as bamboos don't recover well after flowering.
• Trim off the lower leaves so that the beautiful stems can be admired.

• Plant in moist but well-drained, fertile soil in full sun or part shade in a sheltered or exposed location. If planting more than one, allow at least 100cm distance between them to allow room to spread.
• Bamboos do well in large containers, but if you plant in the garden, consider placing a physical barrier around the roots to stop them invading surrounding areas.
• Apply a liquid fertiliser in spring and mulch in winter to protect the roots.
• Bamboos can grows vigorously, so prune canes at the base regularly to prevent them from spreading further than desired.
• In the spring, unwanted or spindly canes should be cut down to ground level. New shoots can also be pruned once they grow taller than the rest of the plant if you wish to maintain a compact size.

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
