Nuda is the hardiest of the Phyllostachys Genus and also one of the finest.  It is a nice looking bamboo with a dark node and a bright ring of white powder below accentuating the dark green to almost black new canes.  Add very small, dark leaves and you have an elegant bamboo.  The new shoots are fine for eating and very tasty. It makes a superb choice for harsh climates when a tropical looking screen or specimen is desired.  This is the one that we recommend to people wishing to experiment with bamboo in extreme environments.
