Hoping for input as to possible identification

I have a beautiful bamboo which was sold to me as D. yunnanicus but I am quite sure it is definitely NOT. Culms are 3-4" diameter, dark green lightening as they age, nodes are banded white at top and brown on bottom. Culms have bluish bloom when new. Culm sheaths are tawny with very soft velvety hairs and leaf blade is reflexive. Shoots are tasty but need at least two boilings (not sweet like yunnanicus)
I tried to add two photos but couldn't figure out how to do it here. I think they were downloaded somewhere on the site though.
