Perhaps the hardiest of the clump forming Bamboo, hardy to minus 20F. New Umbrella Bamboo reaches a height of 10-12', forming fabulous clumps of canes that bend with the weight of their foliage, creating a lovely evergreen fountain. As new shoots emerge in late summer, the older leaves turn yellow for autumn color, then drop.
