50 Fargesia sp. Rufa bamboo seeds Maximum Height: 10' (avg. 7'), Cane Diameter: ½" Hardiness: -15º F USDA zone 5 through 9, not for climates with high heat and humidity (southeastern states). A beautiful and very hardy Fargesia with new culms that have attractive rusty reddish sheaths and a clumping root system. This new introduction is proving to be one of the most hardy and versatile clumping bamboo in the landscape. It is a shorter Fargesia, only about 10 feet tall when mature, but a vigorous grower, sending up many new culms each season. The new culms leaf out early in the summer, making it an excellent choice where its rapid growth is desired. Like Fargesia dracocephala and Fargesia robusta, its leaves do not curl in the sun, but it is hardier than either of these. Yet like all Fargesias, it should be planted with protection from the hot afternoon sun, especially in warmer climates.. How to germinate Soak in water for 1-2 days Plant only the seeds that sink Plant the seeds straight up and down with pointy end just barely sticking out of soil VERY IMPORTANT PART Keep the soil temp at or above 70 degrees, warmer is better. I use a seedling heat pad for this
