Wow, Once most East American river banks used to be covered in these native bamboos, now only a few patches like this are left

I love my rivercane!
It’s not native to New England, but it grows in the same habitat further south in higher elevations; so it thrives here. I’m hoping to get my first culms taller than me this coming spring.
It seems to grow really well in our shitty soil. I always wanted bamboo and now I can have a nice non invasive but still beautiful bamboo grove.
