| We often take the back way while making deliveries or going on vacation. We see groves of this almost everywhere we go in Alabama, Georgia, and northern Florida. This bamboo was promoted by the Agricultural agencies back when family farms were common. It made a good farm crop as it was ideal for fishing poles and garden stakes. These could be used on the farm and sold as a cash crop. We use them to build supports for some of our gingers. They also work well as tomato stakes. With a litte imagination one could find all kinds of uses fot Fishpole bamboo. Often you can find culms that have a "tortoise shell" look due to the distorted nodes at the base. Golden bamboo is often used in furniture construction. |

| This large grove of P.aurea is about 6 feet thick and 150 feet long. It is too dense to penetrate. |
These compacted or distorted nodes are the most distinctive feature of Golden Bamboo. These can often be very attractive. |
