Fargesia albo cerea
Fargesia black culm
Description
Fargesia albo-cerea is a non-invasive clumping bamboo species, known for its elegant, upright form and unique stem coloration. The culms (stems) start with a silvery-blue hue, that eventually turn yellow and then a warm tan color as they age. This bamboo provides a beautiful screen, and can be an attractive addition to any garden, as well as a privacy barrier. The plant thrives in partial shade or full sun, and prefers moist, well-draining soil. The plant is quite cold hardy. Propagation is best done through division, making sure that the roots and stems have a good hold.
