This all green vigorous bamboo is super hardy and fast. It is known to
have survived -20F and is an excellent source of edible bamboo shoots with good taste.
Unlike most bamboos, it will grow in a wet spot. It has unusually thick culms for
its height. If you rub the culms at certain times of the year it smells of incense.
