Fargesia Jiuzhaigou (red stemmed bamboo)

• Origin: China
• Mature Height: 2-4 metres
• Hardiness: -25 degrees celcius; Zone 5b
• Exposure: Light or Full Shade
• Use: Solitary Speciman, screening or hedging

The Fargesia Jiuzhaigou is a fairly new introduction from China and is still relatively rare in the UK (named after a park in Sichuan where the seeds were collected).

This clump forming bamboo has green culms when they emerge which turn slowly to a red/purple colour and eventually to a light orange.

This bamboo performs extremely well in semi or full shade and looks excellent in a container with its colourful qualities.

Please note young plants will not show the red colour as shown in the photo, this comes with maturity and exposure to sun
