Hawai'i bamboo

Bamboo on the Big Island.

There are some impressive groves on the Big Island, pretty much all the same,...photos following:

Any chance these were taken at Akaka Falls?

I do not remember any green bamboo other than the large ones down the road at Hawaii Tropical Botanical Garden.

You are correct. One would think that there was some a PeePee Falls too, but no luck.

BTW, Pee/pee /falee is a real place, otherwise known as the Boiling Pots/

If you take Hwy 130 to the volcano coast, there are some large groves as well.

Those are the 2 bamboo you'll most likely run across in Hawai'i, BvV and S. tootsik, although the S. tootsik exceeds the description so much that it may be a unique form.
