Bamboo: Beautiful Massive Grasses at the San Diego Botanic Garden

Our newest fall exhibition, Bamboo: Beautiful Massive Grasses, celebrates this special area of the Garden and the remarkable diversity of the bamboo collection. While this beautiful plant is recognized worldwide, what many people may not know is that bamboo is, in fact, a grass! Each bamboo stem completes its growth in a year, and can grow several feet per day. Some bamboo grow as tall as trees, with the ability to transform spaces into peaceful forests. As you explore our Bamboo Garden, take a deep breath and listen to the gentle whisper of the swaying culms overhead as they dance in the ocean breezes from the west.
