Is there anyone here within driving distance of south central Ohio who
might be willing to part with a small rhizome or plant of a clumping
type of bamboo, preferably one hardy to at least zone 5 (we're between
5b and 6a) and that will grow to over 10 feet tall (taller up to 20
feet plus is OK)?

I would be happy with just the species name of such a beast. The
internet lists a nursery a few miles east of Florence Y'all (local joke
- the town, not the nursery).

OT
A mall wis being built in Florence KY, just across the river from
Cincinnati and the water tower was built first. On it was painted
"Flornece Mall". Because you can't advertise somethong that is not
there, it was changed to "Flornce Y'all". By the time the mall was
built, the name on the water tower had entered local folklore and it
had become a landmark.
