Fargesia 'Viking' is a striking bamboo variety that is highly prized for its ornamental value and ease of cultivation. This clumping bamboo is a popular choice for gardeners and landscapers who want to add a touch of exoticism to their outdoor spaces.

One of the most notable features of Fargesia 'Viking' is its compact size. This bamboo typically grows to a height of around 6-8 feet, making it ideal for smaller gardens and patio containers. The slender green canes of Fargesia 'Viking' are also adorned with delicate foliage that adds a graceful, airy quality to the plant.

Another advantage of Fargesia 'Viking' is its cold-hardiness. This bamboo is able to withstand temperatures as low as -20°F, making it an excellent choice for gardeners in cooler climates. Additionally, Fargesia 'Viking' is relatively drought-tolerant and can thrive in a range of soil types.

Overall, Fargesia 'Viking' is a versatile and attractive bamboo that can add a unique touch to any garden or landscape. With its compact size, delicate foliage, and cold-hardiness, it is a popular choice for both novice and experienced gardeners alike.

Arundel Arboretum is a shrub and tree retail nursery with over 40 years of experience.

About Us

During this time, we have developed a large stock of trees, mature evergreen shrubs, conifers, Japanese maples, cedars and olives. What sets us apart from a generic garden center is solid unwavering focus on trees and some bigger shrubs. You will find thousands of trees, hundreds of varieties and lots of experts who are working on the nursery and more than willing to help you to choose a plant for you.

What you will not find is hot tubs, garden furniture and plastic garden gnomes. In a nutshell, trees is what we know and trees is what we do, and only trees (and some shrubs to go with the trees).
