Fargesia papyrifera (Fargesia papyrifera)

Description

Fargesia papyrifera is a clump-forming, evergreen bamboo that can grow 4 - 6 metres tall, occasionally to 8 metres; the erect, woody culms are usually 20 - 40mm in diameter with internodes 22 - 28cm long. The plant spreads slowly by means of short rhizomes, eventually forming quite a large, dense clump.
