Description
Fargesia robusta ‘Pingwu’
Fargesia robusta Pingwu is a non-invasive, clump-forming bamboo that quickly establishes a narrow yet dense privacy screen and noise barrier. In spring, its culms emerge with a striking rusty-red hue, transitioning to vibrant green while developing a unique checkerboard pattern as the sheaths fade to white. These eye-catching variegated culms persist throughout the summer. Known for its cold hardiness, Pingwu maintains its glossy evergreen foliage even in temperatures as low as -20°C. This resilient bamboo thrives in well-drained soils and is perfect for fast screening. Unlike more aggressive bamboo species, Pingwu stays well-behaved, making it ideal for smaller gardens, urban settings, and even container planting on patios. Height: 2.5?4m (8.2?13ft) Spread: 1.5?2.5m (4.9?8.2ft) Note: Plant height and spread vary with the seasons, so we list by pot size rather than a fixed size. The plant delivered may differ slightly in height and spread depending on the season.
