Care & tips for the Fargesia Rufa - 25cm

The Fargesia Rufa is a robust, hardy bamboo variety that's perfect for borders, pots or as a green hedge. This compact bamboo doesn't spread aggressively, which makes it a favourite in smaller gardens. Regular watering and the occasional dose of organic fertiliser encourage growth. It's easy to prune to keep it in shape.

How much water does the Fargesia Rufa - 25cm need?

This bamboo likes slightly moist soil, especially during the growing season from spring to autumn. Don't let the soil dry out completely, but make sure excess water can drain away freely. In pots it needs watering a little more often than in open ground.

How much light does the Fargesia Rufa - 25cm need?

The Fargesia Rufa does well in partial shade to full sun. In full sun it will ask for a bit more water, while in partial shade it grows more slowly. Avoid deep shade, as the leaves can turn yellow there and growth slows down.

The Fargesia Rufa isn't toxic, so it's safe in gardens with children and pets.
