{"title":"Fargesia","description":"\u003cp\u003eFargesia is the ideal bamboo for urban living: non-invasive, it stays where you plant it without encroaching on your neighbor’s balcony. Compact, hardy, and evergreen, it adds a touch of exotic charm all year round — in a pot on a terrace, in a planter on a balcony, or planted in the ground as a privacy hedge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy choose a non-invasive bamboo?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRunning bamboos (Phyllostachys, Pseudosasa…) are known for their invasive growth: their underground rhizomes spread throughout all available space and can damage terraces, foundations, or neighboring pots. Fargesia is a clumping bamboo — it grows in a compact clump without sending out running rhizomes. This guarantees a controlled bamboo, perfectly suited for container growing and small urban spaces.

Choose a pot at least 30 cm in diameter with good drainage. Bamboo is thirsty: in summer, daily watering may be necessary, especially in full sun. In winter, reduce watering but never let the soil dry out completely.

In pots, protect the roots during prolonged frost with a frost cloth around the planter.
