Here is a picture looking up into a Moso grove.

Welcome to our Moso 'Anderson' page.Moso bamboo is the largest of the cold hardy bamboos, growing to a height of 75 feet with a diameter of 8 inches here in the U.S. This specific clone is slow to get established. Here in America, it grows best in a thin band of climate zones 7 and 8 located in the southeastern portion of the United States. Moso is distinguished by relatively short lower internodes in the strongly tapered, furry culms and has unusually small leaves. New plantings of the 'Anderson' clone grow slowly, but the beauty of this clone and its cold hardiness make it highly sought after. The large shoots make Moso the central species in the bamboo shoot business in both China and Japan.
