Please add Chusquea bilimekii

Post by moriphen »

Could we add Chusquea bilimekii to the bamboo plant list? It has a source vendor in the US and has been documented as a separate species.

From Gib Cooper's Website:
Burgandy colored culms grace the upright form of this rare species collected from seed in the 1999
Mexican expedition. It grows at 9000' in the pine forest of the Sierra Occidental. The leaves are
longer and narrower that C. culeou species. Hardiness is not known. The best guess is 10 F.
