Culms slightly zigzag, and internodes are slightly curved. The common name 'Ox Horn Bamboo' refers to the overall form of the culms as they emerge from the ground. Because the culms naturally bow outward, then upward, the new shoots truly resemble ox horns - especially when two new shoots oppose one another. Mostly a bamboo for collectors. Should grow to about 35' tall with 3" diameter culms. Min. USDA zone 9b. Click here to find zone.
