Fargesia murielae Bamboo

Umbrella Bamboo hedge (Fargesia murielae) description

As it is a fast-growing, clump-forming plant, it is best situated in a spacious area, allowing it room to spread or plant where the roots will be constrained (or use a root barrier).

Care and pruning advice for Umbrella Bamboo hedging

As Fargesia Jumbo is very fast growing and clump-forming it needs to be pruned regularly to prevent from spreading farther than desired. In the spring, unwanted or spindly canes should be cut down to ground level. New shoots should also be pruned once they grow taller than the rest of the hedge.
