Product Information

Even better, the gentle flow of water is sure to attract local wildlife, like birds and pollinators, who will want to stop by for a refreshing drink. Plant them where the sun can shine through the canes, or where you can see or hear the breeze gently wafting and rustling through all year - a very sensual plant indeed!

Despite this, the individual canes are well spaced which gives it the aesthetic appeal of running bamboos without so much difficulty controlling it.The spouts have an attached metal spike for stability, in addition a generous length of 13 mm ID transparent hosepipe to fit a small submersible water pump. These features handle your wellbeing with care: no more unwanted noise, and only relaxation through a serene sound of flowing water.

Plus, maintenance isn’t much of a hassle once you get it going, due to the self-contained water circulation systems. In the wild it’s found growing alongside Rhododendrons, Hydrangeas and Mahonias, all of which make perfect planting companions in your garden! Always disconnect the mains electricity supply whilst the equipment is being installed, repaired, cleaned, maintained and handled or while replacing light bulbs. You can amplify your fountain’s trickling water sounds by leaving a bit more space between the water level and the top of your basin. In spring, remove any weak, dead, damaged or spindly canes, cutting them to ground level with secateurs or loppers, at the same time remove any debris at the base of clumps.

Lush green foliage and yellow canes are complimented by pleasing orange-pink sheaths as new growth pushes early in the season. This is the nature of this material and there is nothing that we can do to prevent this from happening. Clump-forming bamboos have a root mass like normal ornamental grasses, spreading gradually out from the centre and never springing up canes more than 10-15cm from the existing plant. Best planted in spring so that the food reserves in the rhizome are used to produce a good flush of fresh canes in summer.

This section of bamboo will be placed across the top of the bamboo “shelf” you just made to form the spout of your fountain. Whilst the splits may look unsightly they will not affect the structural integrity nor the operation of the water basin arrangement.You may find our guides on how to plant, grow and care for bamboo and the differences between clump forming and running bamboo useful. Adding a fountain to your garden or patio is a great way to elevate your space and create a soothing atmosphere that can feel like an oasis in an otherwise busy world.

However, if you want something a little more understated – much like a garden water bowl, feel free to tuck your new fountain away into a peaceful spot.

Slender green canes are banded with colourful sheaths that vary from orange-red to shrimp-pink, depending on the soil. Measure the diameter of plastic tubing and drill a hole that’s slightly larger than your plastic tubing on the underside of your bamboo spout. An “oriental-style garden can be complemented with a simple bamboo ‘deer scarer’ feature,” says Garden Answers contributor, Geoff Hodges.
