Gardening at the edge 
HELLO,
I’m impressed with your plant’s selection. I’m very interested in bamboo and would like to add some to my garden. I’m in Toronto. Have a few questions
1. They are hardy to your place? Do they die back at winter?
2. How many years do you have them?
3. Do you sell them if they are hardy?
4. Can you recommend where to buy clamping bamboo in Ontario (10 ft and up)?
5. Is your rufa as hardy as nitida?
6. Have you tried or heard of Fargesia sp. Scabrida? Hardy in Ontario?
7. May you give me your recommendations/suggestion/ advice for growing bamboo in Ontario please?
Thanks a lot for your time
happy gardening!
Maria
Hey Maria
Toronto is hardiness zone 5-6, depending on where you are exactly.
1- They are only hardy up here because I bend them over to the ground then bury them in leaves. Just to make sure I toss a tarp on them. Im lucky to have reliable snow, and I am pretty sure this is the main reason for my success. I do get some leaf kill to some degree and have only had partial dieback due to poor protection.
2 – The rufa I have had since 2009 and the Phyllostachys I have had since 2010. The seedling Fargesia (borinda) yunannensis was grown from seed spring 2013. I also have a small F nitida, which may or may not have survived the winter in the basement.
3/4- The plants are too small to divide right now. There are a few places which I cant remember in the GTA. Try and google “Where to buy bamboo in S ontario”. You can also join the forums Bambooweb.info, where there are a few people in your area who grow bamboo.
5 – Nitida is way hardier then rufa. Someone I know from a forum grows in in kingston, and if I am not mistaken, it hasnt died back once in 5 or so years. Rufa is generally hardy though, much more so then my Phyllostachys “alata” imo.
6 – F scabrida is one of my favorites. I had one and if I protected it right it may have survived here. Unfortunately I didnt protect it very well. I can tell you that after reading quite a bit be careful of the hardiness ratings online. Many of them are over exaggerated. IF planted near a wall, and still given proper grow requirements its possible it may make it there, especially if you can bend it down and mulch it.
7 – Learn about the proper growing requirements for every specie of bamboo you grow and learn the micro climates in your yard. The easiest way to see this is look in the spring at where the snow melts first, these are usually the warmer/warmest parts of your yard. They can be a double edged sword though. They can wake plants up too early in spring and have them damaged by our all too familiar spring cold snaps. In regards to fargesia, the wall may be too hot for the plant as well. I can suggest a few species that should do ok down there in ideal situations:
Fargesia rufa, nitida and murielae
Phyllostachys areosulcata (and varieties), virella, parvifolia, bisseti
Arundinaria gigantea
Hope this helps!
Thank you very much for your reply and time. Your info is very valuable to me. It’s never come to my mind to look at the yard for wormiest places where the snow melts first. Thanks to you now I know. My dream is to find a clumping bamboo hardy to my zone (I’m in North York) which is hardy to our winter without bending and at least 10 ft high for privacy screen and to hide that ugly chicken wire at a property line. Mulching is fine. We mulch everything on top of landscaping fabric. It makes really trouble free garden without any weeds, retains water and helps to keep even most invasive plants in shape. I know some bamboos are growing in Siberia (though I didn’t see any when I was there in an expedition for Tunguska’s meteorite. Probably they grow in other parts of Siberia), in China mountains (where climate is harsh), Tibet and cold zones of Japan. I google and google for that still without success or reliable info. Bamboo World claims: Fargesia nitida (Fountain Bamboo)
* Max Height 12′ (West Coast Estimate 10′ Feet)
* Max Culm Dia .5″
* Min Temp -32C
* Prefers Part Shade
* Clumping Bamboo
Fargesia sp. Scabrida:
* Max Height 16′ (West Coast Estimate 14′ Feet)
* Max Culm Dia .75″
* Min Temp -29C
* Sun or Shade
* Clumping Bamboo
Fargesia sp. ‘Rufa’
* Max Height 10′ (West Coast Estimate 8 – 10 Feet)
* Max Culm Dia .5″
* Min Temp -29C
* Sun or Shade
* Clumping Bamboo
I contacted them a month ago but still didn’t get any reply.
Sheridan has only small grass like bamboo which by the way extremely invasive. My friend in BC is not able to kill it. Humber nursery has small or running or tender. I find a nursery at QC and I’m going to contact them. Another one is Rhora’s Nut Farm and Nursery at Niagara. Bamboo Creationz is not open to public but we are going to visit Canada Bloom and hopefully we’ll meet them and discuss ( they are an exhibitor). I hope to meet people from TBG or RBG there and will try to discuss that. The best information for me came from other gardeners who grow plants at their yard. The best advices I got from fellow gardeners from gardening sites.
That is why I appreciate your info very much. If you recall where you buy your bamboos please let me know.
I hope your bamboos survive in that winter.
All the best,
Maria
Hey Maria
I had a chance to get down south to Humber a few weeks ago. They indeed had nitida at a decent price, and healthy plants. They also had some Rufa. Nitida is probably your best bet
