Borinda albocera Yunnan 3

This  is one of a number of clones introduced from China around 1993. Its hardiness and potential as a garden plant are still being assessed but it is believed to have tolerated -13C. May benefit from light shade.

It should form a graceful, arching clump about 10ft high. When young the culms are blue-grey, maturing to pale yellow. It has attractive small leaves.

A choice collectors’ plant best in a sheltered site. Very limited availability.
