Description: Fargesia rufa - Umbrella Clumping Bamboo - 1 gallon Mature Height: 12 feet Aspect: mostly shade to afternoon shade Hardiness Zone: USDA 6 An excellent, fast-growing clumping bamboo for creating solid hedges and screens. Each clump will have hundreds of individual canes packed together to form one of the densest walls of foliage offered by any bamboo, and in a short time too. From a one or two gallon plant, Fargesia rufa can establish to a height of about eight feet with dense foliage several feet in diameter in 2-3 years, especially with amended soil and fertilizer. Fargesia rufa will handle more sun than most other Fargesias , even in the Rogue Valley where summer temperatures often reach 100+ degrees for a week or more at a time, it can handle sun for all but the hottest part of the afternoon (just be sure to water it well!). Fargesia rufa tends to grow in a slightly weeping fashion similar to other Fargesias , but it can be easily kept upright by trimming the tips of canes which are leaning over. Once the tip weight is removed, the stems will spring back upright to keep a more tidy plant for those with a narrow environment. Personally, we have found that when space is available the wide, slightly weeping plants create a mystic appearance to a hedge. These are some of the really nice one gallon plants we have available starting in December 2015. These plants should produce quite a few new shoots in the coming spring. New shoots on this one year old plant are just starting to leaf out after having more than doubled the plant's height. Shipping Information Shipped via UPS Ground in the original container.
