Fargesia robusta is a species of clumping bamboo in the family Poaceae, native to Sichuan, China.[1] Typically 3 m (10 ft) but reaching 4.5 m (15 ft), and with a narrow growth form, it has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit as an ornamental.[2] A number of cultivars are commercially available, including 'Campbell', 'Pingwu' (Green Screen is derived from 'Pingwu'), 'Wenchuan', and 'Wolong'.[3]
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.[4] It is a member of the Fargesia spathacea species complex, and may not be a distinct species.[5]
