Fargesia rufa Green Panda™
2011 Theodore Klein Plant Award Winner
Green Panda Bamboo USDA Zone recommended 5 through 9. Green Panda has a non-invasive root system. 6-8 feet tall when mature and of equal width; it is vigorous and develops many new culms each season. Siting should provide protection from the hot afternoon sun in Kentucky. It can be used as a single shrub-like plant or in a mass planting as a hedge or grouping. The texture of the overlapping branches of strap-like foliage is very appealing. (Bamboo Select US Introduction)
