Bamboo ID, Please
|
It is a lot easier to ID something when you know where in the world it
is growing but the photo looks like Phyllostachys aureosulcata aka "yellowgroove" If the photo was taken today I 'd guess your latitude to be about 36N or so. How about coming back with a location? |

How about coming back with a location? Sorry... Zone 5, Nebraska, USA. I have had others (in another forum) say that it is indeed Yellow Groove. This person's Phy. auerosculcata rarely zig-zag's. -- SamMan Rip it to reply |

Not every culm will have the zigzag but it is one of it's signatures. -- Travis in Shoreline Washington |

The person states however, that with his Yellow Groove this characteristic only displays itself very rarely. They speculate the possibility of the zig-zag being influenced more by growing conditions/soil type. I am by no means an expert on bamboo cultivation (this being my second year), but it is interesting food for thought. -- SamMan Rip it to reply |
Well, you are at about the same latitude as Connecticut.
When was the photo taken? |
