Fargesia Robusta Formidable

Super chunky fargesia.  If the facts are to be believed it can get quite tall, but we have always found it to be short and compact. Perhaps we have it mis labelled, but they are super chunky little plants in large pots that are as wide as they are tall. Perhaps try growing them in horse manure and you might have a taller plant. They are ready for a new home so we are getting rid. Only about 60cm tall but about 90cm wide.

This particular Fargesia is known for its robust, chunky growth. While it is reputed to reach significant heights, our experience has shown it to be more compact and shorter in stature. There is a possibility that it may be mislabelled. Nevertheless, these plants are notably dense and come in large pots with dimensions roughly equal in width and height.

For optimal growth, consider experimenting with horse manure as a growing medium, which may enhance their height. Currently, these plants are approximately 60 cm tall and 90 cm wide and are available for relocation. We are offering them at this time as we prepare them for new homes.
