polished canes. The foliage is darker than most other Fargesias
and the plant has a slightly open habit. Perfect if you need a smaller
specimen for a small garden or courtyard planting. Grows well with

DeepRoot® Bamboo Barrier has proven to be an effective material
to prevent the unwanted spread of bamboo. The smooth surface of
the Bamboo Barrier acts as a root stop diverting the rhizome and
preventing rampant growth. The rhizome will not penetrate the barrier,
rather it will turn and continue to grow along the surface of the
barrier. This contains the bamboo and prevents undesired spreading.
