Bamboo is a group of woody perennial evergreen plants in the grass family
There are over 1200 species of bamboo with approximately 150 of these
being non-invasive clumping bamboo
Clumping bamboo have a natural growth habitat of forming tight compact
clumps within a rhizome system
Bamboo grows 3 times faster than trees that make up deciduous and conifer
forests which take 30 -50 years to regenerate after harvesting
Bamboo requires just 6 months to mature and some species can grow up to 1
foot per day Bamboo forests cover nearly 35 million acres of the Earth's
surface
All plants take in carbon dioxide (CO2) and emit oxygen (O2), which cleans
the air. Bamboo removes more carbon dioxide than most trees due to its
exceptionally fast growth and can aid the world's global warming.
Superb "green" product used around the world in the garden, crafts,
furniture making, clothing and food products.
Bamboo handles cold temperatures well, some species down to 21 degrees.
Found worldwide from cold mountains to tropical rainforests.
