Description: I'm selling over 600 + kinds of seeds ( and also live plants during the warmer months ) so check my other auctions . You are bidding on 10 GREEN STRIPE BAMBOO SEEDS - Phyllostachys Viridis . See my other bamboos listed . A majestic giant with bright yellow canes and random dark green stripes of varying widths is distinctive and truly remarkable. It is the most cold hardy of the large timber bamboos and establishes very quickly. The oral setae and auricles are absent from the culm sheaths. There is also white pin striping on many of the green leaves. A fast grower to 60 to 70 feet tall in warmer climates and maybe 30 to 40 feet in cooler climates, this bamboo forms a grove of large, 5 inch diameter culms. USDA Plant Hardiness Zones: 6a-11 Type: Running, moderateHeight: Up to 70', in cooler regions maybe 50'Spread: 10'+ with no controlCulm Diameter: 5"Sun: Full to Mostly Sun Height : Up to 70', in cooler regions maybe 50' Spread: 10'+ with no controlCulm Width : Maximum diameter: ( 5 inches )USDA Plant Hardiness Zones: 6a-11 Light Exposure: Full to Mostly Sun Medicinal use : The leaves are used in the treatment of arthritic inflammations. The sheaths of the stem are used in the treatment of nausea and sour stomach. Edible parts : Young shoots - cooked. Very palatable when cooked but acrid raw. Not of the highest quality, but their large size makes them very popular. Extensively eaten in China, they are usually cooked in one change of water. The shoots are harvested in the spring when they are about 8 cm above the ground, cutting them about 5 cm below soil level. The dormant young shoots, harvested in the winter before they emerge above the ground, are especially relished as a delicacy.Other uses : The canes make good water pipes, they are also used for household utensils etc. The short internodes at the lower end of the cane are used as flasks, vases etc. Although the wood is relatively soft, the canes are much used for heavy construction, weaving various types of handicrafts and paper making. The rhizomes are used as walking sticks and umbrella handles. See my store for 600+ seeds , live plants ( during the warmer months ) and over 300+ books on plants and gardening .
