Bamboo Culms
Walton
County, Georgia
These are culms (stalks) of an
agressively spreading species of bamboo – Golden Bamboo (Phyllostachys aurea). This
particular stand is kept in check by annual mowing. Northern Cardinals
(Cardinalis cardinalis) will build nests and raise young in these bamboo stands
and White-tailed Deer (Odocoileus virginianus) will bed
down in a stand.
