Seabreeze is a fast growing big bamboo. It gets about 40′ tall and has a culm size of about 21/4″. This is an excellent plant for screening. It is very upright and has a wonderful green color that is year round. Many people are using this bamboo for screening smaller spaces by removing pieces of it every year. This gives a great effect of a big bamboo in a small planter which can be very useful for screening 2-3 story buildings. The spacing is 5-7′ on center but I have had many people plant it closer for a more immediate effect.
