Native NC Bamboo

Aulander, NC(Zone 7a)

About three years ago when I moved to my wetland I could have sworn I saw a small patch of something that resembled bamboo.

Go ahead LOL! I never knew that NC had a native bamboo. Now I have about four large areas near the woods that have a nice grove effect going on. I don't mind except for the really scary photo of the canebreak rattlesnake.

Any suggestions or experience with this creature? So far, the only snake I've encountered was a white earth snake.

Smithfield/ Selma area is covered with it alond creek banks.
Spreds like wild fire.

It's along the roadsides here in New Bern, too.

Interested in fiding a shoot of the N.C. bamboo.

Also I would like information on crabapple trees. I bought one called Eleyi because of the color. However, the ticket does say that it has fruits. I am concerned as to whether the fruits are bird fruits or the kind that we humans could eat. I love crab apple jelly! I love their color in the spring, don't you?
