This new bamboo, not offered for sale before, is the largest and strongest of the genus, along with Pseudosasa amabilis. It is reported to be considerably hardier than other Pseudosasa. With long internodes and culm walls that are thick and strong, P. longiligula is very suitable for furniture, for which purpose it is often used in China. Has hairy nodes and white wax on new shoots, as seen in photo.
