Called sacred bamboo, this evergreen shrub grows to approx  1.8m and is native to China and Japan. It has dainty, vaguely bamboo-shaped evergreen foliage, which may take on tints of red and bronze in autumn and winter if grown in a sunny spot, giving foliage colour in the smallest of gardens. Grown in a small group with a male and a female plant, it will produce long-lasting red berries in autumn which will last through much of winter. The sacred bamboo is easily grown, can tolerate a prefer a degree of shade in a woodland-like setting, and is in no way related to the invasive true bamboos! The old fruiting stems can be removed and straggly canes pruned at their base in spring, when it can be mulched and fertilised. Note that this plant has a tendency to self-seed, so caution should be exercised if it is grown near a bushland area.
