1 to 2 meters.
Dierama pendulum is the only member of this genus that is winter growing. It grows on rocky, loamy clay or sandstone slopes and flats in the southeastern Cape. In has pink nodding flowers in drooping spikes. This is a white form of this species photographed and flowered by Rob Hamilton in early summer. Some species may bloom in a 1 gallon (3L) pot but most do much better in the ground where they have room to spread. Dierama dracomontanum is native to the Drakensberg Mountains of South Africa where it grows in grassland, sometimes dominating mountain slopes. Dierama robustum grows from 1 to 2 meters tall and is widespread at high altitudes in grassland in the Eastern Cape and the Drakensberg. It has pendulous large white to pale pink or mauve flowers and blooms in summer. Some species may bloom in a 1 gallon (3L) pot but most do much better in the ground where they have room to spread. Dierama dracomontanum is native to the Drakensberg Mountains of South Africa where it grows in grassland, sometimes dominating mountain slopes. The biggest dolphin is the killer whale. Killer whale calves are about 8 feet long at birth and can grow to over 20 feet long. Bottlenose dolphins are about 3 1/2 feet long at birth and grow to 8 or 9 feet long.

Bamboo can grow to conform to whatever space it is given; a long narrow planter, will produce a long, narrow screen, of moderate height, but most likely not full height. Some bamboo will size up better in small areas; for example P. vivax and P. dulcis can grow over 20 feet tall in a 30 inch wide planter. Taller running types, like Phyllostachys, usually grow 3-5 feet in height per year. Older, more established plants, usually at least 3 years in the ground, will grow faster than newly planted ones. Placement and care will influence how fast and tall a bamboo will grow. Choose a spot with good soil. Gardenias grow best when they are planted in rich soil that is moist but well-drained. Gardenias do best in soils with acidic pH levels. Try to maintain a pH of 5 or 6. You may want to have your soil tested and then add nutrients according to the results.  Gary Dunlop. Like so many plants from South Africa, dierama come from areas of summer rainfall. That means that they like moisture in the growing season, particularly in mid-summer when they flower, but are mostly used to dry conditions in winter. Dierama corms resent waterlogged conditions in winter so they will not grow well in heavy or clay soils.  In a container, bamboo won t grow as tall, usually about 1/2 to 3/4 of its max height. It will also require more watering in the summer than if it was in the ground. We often water our bamboo as much as once a day during extreme heat, but in more reasonable weather we water usually every 2-3 days. Taller running types, like Phyllostachys, usually grow 3-5 feet in height per year. Older, more established plants, usually at least 3 years in the ground, will grow faster than newly planted ones. Placement and care will influence how fast and tall a bamboo will grow. It depends on how big you want the bamboo to grow. Dedicate at least 3 feet by 3 feet for the Clumpers (12 feet circumference), and 3 feet by 10 feet for the Runners (26 feet circumference), to get reasonably close to mature height. The more space the better. Taller running types, like Phyllostachys, usually grow 3-5 feet in height per year. Older, more established plants, usually at least 3 years in the ground, will grow faster than newly planted ones. Placement and care will influence how fast and tall a bamboo will grow. In general, bamboo will get as big as it can depending on how much space it has to grow, kind of like a goldfish in a goldfish bowl. If you want the bamboo to reach its full height, you need to be prepared to donate the space, an area at least 30 feet in circumference. Taller running types, like Phyllostachys, usually grow 3-5 feet in height per year. Older, more established plants, usually at least 3 years in the ground, will grow faster than newly planted ones. Placement and care will influence how fast and tall a bamboo will grow. Dierama is an evergreen, mainly summer growing geophyte. It has long, narrow tough fibrous foliage and pendulous bell-shaped flowers in shades of white, yellow, pink, magenta, mauve or maroon. It is recognized by its wiry, usually drooping spikes, and it can be quite dramatic in the garden. Some species may bloom in a 1 gallon (3L) pot but most do much better in the ground where they have room to spread. Dierama dracomontanum is native to the Drakensberg Mountains of South Africa where it grows in grassland, sometimes dominating mountain slopes.
