Pseudosasa japonica is a species of flowering bamboo grass that is native to Japan and Korea. Arrow bamboo earns its common name from the fact that samurais traditionally used the sturdy bamboo canes to make arrows. The plant grows in prolific thickets and can reach up to 6 m tall.
The tongking cane (Pseudosasa amabilis) is a very tall species of bamboo with a very slow growth rate. These plants have been used for construction and other purposes for centuries, particularly for split-cane fly rods used for fishing. However, tongking cane only grows in tropical conditions, which limits cultivation.
