One of the most beautiful of the larger bamboos and Latiflorus does extremely well here in the Perth climate. A stunning feature bamboo in any garden landscape, if you have the room. The canes have excellent buoyancy and are used for making rafts and floats in China. The young shoots are considered the best (for cooking) and it is grown commercially for shoot production. Prefers a sunny or partly shaded position.
