What on earth for?

It's not actually on the "preliminary lists" at the NYS DEC website (and
final lists don't have to be done until January), but evidently in
Lawn-Guy-Land Phyllostachys are a moderate "invasive species" and they
are busy atoning for chestnut blight, et al, in the NYS legislature.

Further north in NY and surrounding states, good luck getting a cane you
can use for a tomato stake to grow.
