Taxonomy
Phyllostachys aurea, also known as fishpole bamboo, bamboo, monk's belly bamboo, and fairyland bamboo, is a species of running bamboo native to Fujian and Zhejiang in China. This evergreen bamboo has bright green canes that grow in large clumps reaching heights of 2.5-3.5m. As the canes age, they turn yellowish. The leaves are linear-lanceolate and range in color from yellow to golden-green, measuring up to 18cm in length. Monk's Belly Bamboo, a rare houseplant, requires regular watering and thrives best in long-lasting, direct light within a foot of a window. It prefers well-draining soil and can benefit from gentle, organic fertilizer during the peak growing season. Belonging to the Phyllostachys genus, Monk's Belly Bamboo is native to China and Vietnam.

Water
Golden Bamboo should be watered regularly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.
Soil
Golden Bamboo loves a well-draining soil. Perlite and vermiculite help with drainage, while coco coir adds organic matter, so a good potting soil mix will have all three. You can improve store-bought soil by adding some perlite to it.
Lighting
To ensure optimal growth, the Golden Bamboo prefers bright diffused light for 6-8 hours each day. Insufficient light can result in slow growth and leaf drop, so it's important to find a well-lit location for this plant. Place it near a window, within a distance of 1 meter (3 feet), to enhance its potential for thriving.

Toxicity
Golden Bamboo is not known to cause harm to humans or pets.
Growth-pattern
New growth will sprout from the top of the plant as it grows upwards.
Region of origin
Golden Bamboo’s native range is E. Asia - S.E. China.
