This is my guess:

Bambusa vulgaris

[boonut]

I agree with Roy. I have enough B. Vulgaris to compare.

Bambusa vulgaris is the tropical version of the temperate Phyllostachys aurea.

You're right on top of it! (translated from "American lingo" to "world wide lingo": YES!)

[philippe smets]

thank you ( world wide lingo )

I have to keep reminding myself that we have a world wide forum and common phrases in one country, even if both of the countries use the same language, might not mean anything in another country.
