The prominent nodes give this bamboo it’s name.  On many of the canes the Giant Leaf Bamboo has some unique properties.  First of all are the giant leaves, up to 24 inches long and 4 inches wide.  It will grow in almost complete shade and is extremely cold hardy, surviving and staying green down to about -10F.  The slender canes arch over forming a sort of mound of bamboo. grow close together, much like Moso.
