Dendrocalamus sinicus aequotus

Description

This sub-species differs from the original form in that its lower internodes are straight, not slanted, zig-zag, or curved. There are no tortured-looking culms. The overall mature dimensions are the same as the original form and, because the culms are entirely straight, this form is high in demand in Yunnan (China) for construction material.

Described as the largest bamboo in the world (largest culm diameter).
