This is the north side of Jefferson Circle downtown, the bamboo ‘hedge’ is Fargesia sp. ‘Jiuzhaigou’ IV and like others suffered no damage from our snows nor the ice that typically can hit downtown. To the left is Magnolia laevifolia ‘Large Form’. All of these seem to be tough sturdy trees with only a few that I’ve heard about suffering significant damage. Typically M. grandiflora, even its dwarf forms, were hit hard all over the region.
