Take a look at this article. I think you will find it very interesting.

Btw, this bamboo can grow to 75 feet at maturity but needs about 60 inches of rain a year or frequent waterings.

Reply:Honestly it looks like Phyllostachys heterocycla cv pubescens, also known as "Moso".
Reply:I agree, this looks like "Moso Bamboo". It is the largest of the "running" bamboo. However, it is rare and difficult to establish.



Where do you live? This bamboo can withstand cold to 5F.



Good Luck!!
