Beautiful yellow canes w/pronounced green stripe on alternate internodes. Truly one of the best looking bamboos. (newer introduction). Good for a privacy hedge as it tends to retain many lower branches. A nice medium sized fast cane producer with a slightly diffuse habit. New shoots appear reddish. Canes smooth to the touch. Contrasting colors on canes are well defined. Some leaves are veriegated with white stripes. Just panyed my first one in the fall of 2007 in central Florida
