Bambusa textilis 'Fasca'
 

One of the most beautiful mid-sized bamboos. Has erect, thin walled culms with persistent white bloom near the nodes. This is a tight clumped bamboo with long internodes and small leaves with a classic Asian appearance making it a “must have” for any bamboo collection. It is useful as a striking specimen plant or a fantastic hedge and it always looks great regardless of the time of year! The thin walled culms are used for weaving, thus the name 'Weavers Bamboo'.

40' tall, 2" dia culms, good to 12 deg F
