Fargesia dracocephala
'White Dragon'
Common Name: White Dragon

Height:  8 feet
Diameter:  0.5 inch
Hardiness:  -5
° F
Recommended for USDA Zone 6 - 9, not for climates with high heat and humidity (southeastern states).

Newly released, this very rare bamboo was grown from seed at our nursery. The variegation is more pronounced in the spring as the new foliage emerges. It does sometimes tend to revert to green, so some removal of green culms may be needed.
