Thanks for pointing that out. In my haste to reply, I didn't think to look
up the Latin name. You are right, of course. There is a nice example at a
little sandwich shop I frequent in Modesto. I asked the owner about it, and
he just told me it was Giant Timber Bamboo, and the clump had stayed the same
size since he'd been there--around 30 years!
