Instructions

Top Tip

Fargesia is clumping bamboo, making it an excellent choice for smaller spaces. It thrives in shade and cooler climates, and its non-invasive nature makes it ideal for garden borders.

How to Water

Water autumnopia regularly during the growing season to keep the soil evenly moist, especially in dry periods. Reduce watering in winter, but ensure the soil doesn't dry out completely.

How to Plant

Plant Fargesia bamboo in a well-draining, fertile soil in a location with partial to full shade. Dig a hole that’s twice the size of the root ball, place the plant, and fill it with soil. Water thoroughly after planting, and mulch to conserve moisture and control weeds.
