Fargesia Murieliae
A great option for a tropical garden!
The Fargesia Murialiae is an excellent tropically themed, wind-resistant plant, which is ideal for filling awkward spots in the garden, or hiding unwanted features. This Umbrella Bamboo can rise over two metres tall, and will promptly form clumps of arching yellow-green canes, with
foliage comparable to an umbrella. The Fargesia Murialiae is brilliant for screening, particularly in urban areas where road noise can be lessened, and pollution filtered. All of this contributed towards earning the Fargesia Murialiae an RHS Award of Garden Merit!
Height: Up to 4m (12’) Spread 1.5m (4.9’) The height and spread of the plant received will vary depending on the season it's delivered.

When growing Umbrella Bamboo in pots, choose a soil based compost such as John Innes No. 3. Repot the plant, firming well into the new container, then water well and position in full sun or semi shade. Alternatively plant Umbrella Bamboos directly into borders in any moist, free draining soil. Bamboos dislike poor, dry soils. If your soil is particularly free draining, improve it by adding plenty of well rotted manure or garden compost prior to planting. Choose a sheltered position that is protected from cold, drying winds. Fargesia murieliae spreads via underground rhizomes so is best given space to grow. Alternatively surround the roots with a barrier to restrict the plant’s spread.
