According to tropicalbamboo.org it is "Yellow stripes on the culms of an otherwise standard oldhamii."
However, I cannot find pictures or any reference to this plant anywhere else on the web. Even the mighty Google returns nothing...
This sounds like it'd be a very attractive bamboo to have in any collection, yet no one is selling it and there is no other info. So what's the scoop? Anyone got pics of this mystery boo?
