Fargesia robusta (Campbell)

This species is a comparatively recent introduction but has proved to possess very good gardening qualities. It is easy to identify as, unlike most Fargesia species, it has an upright stature.

The culms are dark green with short branches that grow in a typical Fargesia 45-degree angle from the culm, together forming a cone shape. The sheaths are a startling clear white, another identifying feature, and are outstanding in the spring when the new shoots rise from the ground. The geometric pattern of the regular white culm sheaths against the fresh green background of the expanding culms is a special event on the calendar.

It is quick growing and is ideal for screening. Average spread is about 3.5 ft.
