Chusquea culeou 'Vilches Alto' (picture left) In 2008 Ned Jaquith send me some Chusquea seeds that were collected from the wild by Mike Remmick in Vilches Alto, Chile (central Chile, high elevation). Two seedlings survived for a long time in a pot but they didn’t look very healthy. I planted one of them out and it recovered, surviving some not very cold winters. Now this wonderful bamboo with purple culms, even in the shade, attracts attention of many visitors. I had lost the collecting information about this seedling but now, thanks to Noah Bell, I have got it back and even have a name. Hardy between 12 and 15 °C. Available: 2024 Chusquea ibiramae BBM19 BR 216 (picture right) This one and the next 3 interesting Chusqueas were collected in Brazil in 2019 by P. Bellec, Charles Boulanger et Christian Monnet. Some (maybe all) were collected around a mountain in south Brasilia, Pico da Bandeira (2892 meter). And some of these can survive that temperatures. It is strange that none of the leaves of this 5 species show any tessellation in the leaves that normally is needed to survive freezing temperatures. Maybe these bamboos have had their own evolution to survive frost. This mountain is like an island surrounded with tropical forest far away from the cold resistant Andes Chusqueas. In the future we will know more about the hardiness. There is no picture of the seedling Chusquea microphylla. Exept for Ch. microphylla these bamboos are for sale. |

Phyllostachys iridescens 'Heterochroma' (picture right) and 'Holochrysa (picture left)
Correction: This is what I wrote: This recently discovered Chinese
bamboo that is imported into Europe can produce canes with
unpredictable colors. Sometimes this chameleon is green, many times
yellow and also yellow with a green sulcus is possible.
This is what I write now after a talk with Stéphane (Newfi) who imported these two new Phyllostachys iridescens forms, 'Heterochroma' and ‘Holochrysa’. You can
compare ‘Holochrysa’ and 'Heterochroma' with
Phyllostachys aureosulcata ‘Aureocaulis’ and ‘Spectabilis’. Phyllostachys
iridescens ‘Holochrysa’ is totally yellow (with
some light stripes that are the mark of Ph. iridescens) and 'Heterochroma' is yellow with a green sulcus. Sometimes but
not often (not so often as I thought) they
mutate in each direction but usually they stay stable. Both are equal
important new clones. The plant that I had got and propagated was mislabeled Phyllostachys iridescens 'Heterochroma'. Phyllostachys iridescens 'Heterochroma' (picture right) Both related forms can produce green to greenish canes when these are young that color out later.
