bambu

Uma das espécies de bambu mais amplamente cultivadas globalmente, o bambu-comum cresce a taxas extraordinárias — até 91 cm por dia em condições ótimas — nas regiões tropicais e subtropicais da Ásia, África e Américas. Tecnicamente uma gramínea gigante em vez de uma árvore, os seus colmos podem atingir 20 metros e fornecem uma alternativa madeireira de rápida renovação para construção, papel, têxteis e alimentos. É um componente crítico de habitat para a vida selvagem, incluindo os pandas gigantes que dependem das florestas de bambu.
