Fargesia murielae 'Simba'

Known as the 'Umbrella Bamboo' the Fargesia 'Simba' bamboo is an extremely compact variety, well suited for the smaller garden, or growing in containers where it will look spectacular. It forms tight, gently increasing clumps of very fine, slender arching canes, topped with foliage of narrow fresh green leaves which arch over thus forming the umbrella shape the plant is named after. it prefers a moist but well draining soil or compost, but must not be allowed to dry out as the leaves will go brown and fall off. Very cold hardy though, considering its oriental appearance.
