The smallest is dwarf black bamboo (Chimonobambusa marmorea), which grows 2 to 6 feet tall with culms 1/2 inch in diameter. Dwarf black bamboo grows in USDA zones 8b and 9a.ne of the largest species of black bamboo, Timor black bamboo (Bambusa lako), can reach 70 feet tall. Timor black bamboo is partially salt tolerant. It is nearly matched by giant black bamboo (Gigantochlea atroviolacea), which grows 30 to 60 feet tall.
