Re: Bamboo


I saw the Fargesias and we were working on getting me one, but I forget why we
did not.  I ended up with......<tag outside and I forget the name> ......  I
think it was a Rufus Bamboo, or similar name?  This is a new-ish variety which
is supposed to be more sun and wind tolerant than most (Have I already
reported this?).  I was advised to fertilize-- I gave it some Miracle Grow and
it seems quite happy in it's new location, greening right up and all.  :>

Fargesia nitida and a few other Fargesias are hardy to zone 5.  These are
Mountain Bamboo types that clump rather than run.
