Seller: the-botanical-rarity-shop ✉️ (17,742) 100%, Location: Hayle, GB, Ships to: WORLDWIDE, Item: 281814014111 Fargesia papyrifera (Borinda papyrifera) Very rare blue bamboo - 10 Fresh seeds.

Pack of 10 fresh seeds (freshly harvested Sept 2015) of Fargesia papyrifera (also known as Borinda papyrifera) – Fully-hardy blue Bamboo – with full instructions for germination.

A very rare and difficult to get hold of frost-hardy blue bamboo, primarily native to China.  Younger stems are a stunning and almost metallic-blue colour, with old stems then turning through blue-green.

Clumping bamboo (non-invasive).

Grows to a height of 4-6 m (13-20 feet), with a typical stem diameter of 3 cm, forming an open clump which is non-invasive.

Hardy to -10 to -15ºC (5 to 14ºF).

Bamboo seeds are not always available due to worldwide shortages of most species; this is because they rarely flower, sometimes every 30 to even 100 years (called gregarious flowering).

 

Height: 4-6 m (13-20 feet)

Plant type: Hardy ornamental, blue bamboo

Hardiness: Hardy to -10 to -15ºC (5 to 14ºF)

Shelter from very cold winds

Sun Exposure: Full sun to partial-shade

Soil: Well-drained.  Water well in hotter months but do not keep soil constantly wet during colder months

Propagation methods: Seeds, or division of clumps
