Fargesia robusta

Fargesia robusta is a species of clumping bamboo in the family Poaceae, native to Sichuan, China. Typically 3 m (10 ft) but reaching 4.5 m (15 ft), and with a narrow growth form, it has gained the Royal Horticultural Societys Award of Garden Merit as an ornamental. A number of cultivars are commercially available, including Campbell, Pingwu (Green Screen is derived from Pingwu), Wenchuan, and Wolong. It is a food source for giant pandas but grows at too low an elevation for them to exploit, unless there has been a die-off of their usual species. It is a member of the Fargesia spathacea species complex, and may not be a distinct species.
