Product details

Fargesia Red Dragon, also known as red dragon bamboo, is a beautiful species of bamboo with bright red stems and fresh green leaves. This exclusive and non-invasive Fargesia is a true eye-catcher in the garden. This bamboo variety belongs to the non-spreading types, meaning it does not spread aggressively and does not overrun surrounding areas. The name "Red Dragon" derives from the characteristic red color of its stems. This vibrant, deep red hue gradually fades to a more subdued color as the stems age. Fargesia Red Dragon is also very hardy, tolerating temperatures down to -20 degrees Celsius, and is evergreen. The plant has a compact growth form and reaches a height of about 2 to 3 meters, making it perfect for use as a hedge, privacy screen, or solitary plant.

Care
Fargesia Red Dragon is a bushy bamboo that is suitable for all soil types. Red Dragon thrives well in partial shade to full sun and is a relatively low-maintenance plant. Its maximum height is about 300 cm. The plant requires adequate water, especially in summer, and prefers well-drained soil. Pruning is not necessary but is allowed to maintain the desired shape and height.
