Fargesia Robusta Campbell

Campbell's fargesia robusta plantation

All Fargesia grow much better in soil rich in humus and rich in nutrients. If soils are poor, sandy and very loamy, soils need to be improved. Mix as follows:

• 1/3 peat
• 1/4 of pine bark grain (size 7-15)
• 1/10 of lava granules
• Its own compost and 1/3 of your garden soil.

The addition of clay granules (seramis or pumice) greatly increases the storage of water. Then do not forget to fertilize with bamboo fertilizer. (preferably nitrogen rich).
