Another unknown. This one may need to wait for shoot photos. Pretty sure it had the double branches of Phyllostachys.

A couple of really thin shoots, and the main shoots are just breaking through. Probably too early to tell, but any thoughts on this one?

Is it rubro?

Do rubro culms darken? (This could be cold damage.) It gets a lot of shade.

Looks right for Rubro Alan, no the canes do not usually darken.
