A standard in Japanese style gardens, Sasa veitchii makes a superb screen, or if maintained low, a beatufull groundcover. In the spring and summer, the new leaves are a beautifull shade of green, however, this plants crowning glory, and the reason for its popularity come with winter- as the weather cools, the edges of the leaf die and bleach white, giving the plant a variegated effect. the result is spectacular when the rest of the garden has slowed down and begins to look dreary.
