Alphonse Karr Bamboo – Exotic Elegance for Your Garden
About the Bloom
The Alphonse Karr Bamboo, known for its vibrant and colorful foliage, does not produce blooms. However, its lush green and golden striped leaves create a stunning visual display that adds a touch of exotic elegance to any landscape. The unique variegated pattern of the leaves adds interest and texture to your garden throughout the year.
What to Know About the Plant
This evergreen bamboo features striking green and golden striped leaves that remain on the plant year-round, providing a pop of color in your garden. The Alphonse Karr Bamboo can grow up to 10-20 feet tall, forming a dense clump of gracefully arching canes. Its compact and upright growth habit makes it an ideal choice for creating privacy screens, borders, or focal points in your outdoor space.
Enhancing your Fruitscape
Integrate the Alphonse Karr Bamboo into your fruitscape to add a touch of exotic allure to your garden design. Pair this ornamental bamboo with fruit trees like Citrus, Fig, or Olive for a Mediterranean-inspired theme. Mix in berry plants such as Blueberries or Raspberries to complement the bamboo’s vibrant foliage. Tropical plants like Pineapple Guava or Passion Fruit vines can enhance the exotic ambiance of your garden. Consider planting aromatic herbs like Lemongrass or Mint to add fragrance and culinary versatility to your outdoor space. By combining the Alphonse Karr Bamboo with a variety of edibles and ornamentals, you can create a visually captivating and harmonious landscape that delights the senses.

Landscaping with Ornamental Vines
We love the classic look of a lush vine covering a trellised archway or gazebo. Vines are a very useful plant in the landscape because they can help transform a rigid structure into a lush living sculpture. Vines have a way of making you feel at home the way they hold the landscape together. We love to grow them up pagodas to create a natural shady spot for gathering with friends and family.
Recommended Fertilizers for Planting and Maintenance
- Starter Fertilizer:  Plant with Espoma Organic Bio-tone® Starter Plus. This will increase root mass and help avoid transplant loss in difficult planting conditions.
- Fertilizer to Maintain: Our Ornamental Vine Varieties do well with Espoma Organic Palm-tone Fertilizer
Growing Guide
Currently, we only have growing guides for our edible plants.  We are working on them for our ornamental & landscaping plants, and will add them in the near future. Contact us if you have questions on how to plant and nurture your Ornamental Vines, and we will be glad to have one of our gardeners assist you.
Ornamental & Landscaping Plants at Just Fruits & Exotics
Although Just Fruits and Exotics has been providing ornamental and landscaping plants to customers at our nursery since we added “Exotics” to our name in the 1990’s, we never had them available to our customers online.
However, September of 2018, with the launch of our updated Just Fruits and Exotics website, we added many of our ornamental and landscaping plants to our online store for our customers nationwide.  We encourage you to “Fruitscape†your yards, mixing edibles and ornamentals to make your own edible garden.
Shipping Restrictions
Unfortunately, We Cannot Process Orders to California, Hawaii, Alaska, or Internationally: Please note that due to specific agricultural regulations, we’re unable to ship any plants to the states of California, Hawaii, and Alaska, or outside the United States. Additionally, citrus trees can only be shipped within the state of Florida.
Shipping Information
Before Your Plants Arrive: You can find many guides on unpacking, planting, & care, on our growing guides page.
The Journey From Our Nursery to Your Door: We NEVER ship our plants bare root. Your plant will travel in the very container in which it was nurtured. We thoroughly prune and water them before packing, and make sure they’re well wrapped to retain moisture during transit. It’s as though you’ve personally collected them from our nursery!
Choose Your Ship Date: We understand you’ll want to be available when your plant arrives. Our checkout process features a handy calendar that allows you to choose the Monday on which you want your plant to ship. Depending on your location, you’ll likely receive your plant by Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday of that week. Once shipped, UPS will generate a tracking number and send it to the email you provided. You can then follow your plant’s journey and ensure someone is available to unpack it on arrival day.
