Fargesia Robusta Pingwu

Due to its remarkable look and upright growth, Fargesia 'Robusta Pingwu' is a widely appreciated clumping bamboo that is attractive and strong. This type has rich green leaves and bamboo stems (culms) with a distinctive white sheath at each node, which gives it a colourful and unusual appearance. Because 'Robusta Pingwu' does not spread aggressively like some other bamboos, it is a great option for gardeners who wish to have the beauty of bamboo without the invasiveness.

Fargesia 'Robusta Pingwu' is perfect for natural screening or as a garden design focal point. It goes well with other plants that appreciate shade, such as ferns or hostas. Plant it in wet, well-drained soil in a partially shady or shaded spot. Because it can withstand cold temperatures well, this bamboo prefers a sheltered spot to shield its leaves from the wind.
