I just hit the right combination of Google search parameters. Here is a list of the latitude and longitude of well over a hundred locations that Arundinaria gigantea is reported to be growing. Happy hunting!

A bit of an update:

I was able to convert the coordinates into a file that can be loaded into a free program called EasyGPS. The file can then be downloaded into a GPS receiver.

Unfortunately, the nearest site on the list is 286 miles away from here. :(

A bit more of an update:

I have been able to take the coordinates and make a KML file which can be read by Google Earth. I will post a link when I can put it on a server.

I had to put the kml file in a zip file so it can be downloaded. The link is: http://129.79.74.96/foxd/bamboo/Cane-Sites.zip

Added Longitude and Latitude information to the display. The server is now configured to allow the download of KML files.

Foxd, I finally got around to installing the Google Earth plug-in and viewed your kml file. Very nice. Now I know where to go for vacation this summer. :wink: I'll be dragging the kids thru the forests of Appalachia and beyond.

Someone should make a site like wikimapia but for bamboo.
