Questions 4-5. Over 1000 species of (6 letter word) in 90 geneses have been described and
named. The current rate of discovery suggests many more are still unknown. They come in
a staggering variety of sizes and shapes. Some creep along the ground only a few inches tall,
others soar freestanding to over 100 feet. Some grow in tight clumps, others in open groves.
Some even clamber up trees. The leaves of some species grow only half an inch long, while
others reach several feet. Many species have beautifully variegated culms (stems) and
leaves. (7 letter word) come in many colors, shapes and sizes.
4. Find me a photo of Chimonobambusa marmorea "Red". Must have the name associated with
the label as documentation. Hint: A genus of medium sized (7 letter word) from the Himalayas,
China and Japan, which shoot fall and winter, and is difficult to propagate. Many branches per
node. Thin culm sheaths fall away within a year. Those listed below are aggressive runners.
5. Find me a photo of Phyllostachys bambusoides "Madake" Hint: Hint: A genus of medium to
giant runners with distinct grooves above paired branches. The heaviest shooting occurs in spring.
All species have edible shoots. Nearly all can thrive with hot summers and cold winters. Most
come from China. All grow best in full sun but can take some shade. The wide range of conditions
under which this genus can be grown plus its utility and beauty has caused it to be the most
commonly cultivated genus in the world.
