The Narihira bamboo or pillar bamboo ( Semiarundinaria fastuosa ) is a woody bamboo - species of the genus Semiarundinaria . The natural range is in Japan. It is widely cultivated in China and is also used as an ornamental plant in Central Europe.
description
The stalks of Semiarundinaria fastuosa reach a height of 3 to 9 meters and a diameter of 1 to 4 centimeters. The internodes are initially green and later brownish, terete, 10 to 30 centimeters long, glabrous and hollow. Three branches are formed per bud . The stem leaf sheaths are essentially glabrous, only hairy near the base. The auricles are very small and have few eyelashes (oral setae). The ligule is 1 to 1.5 millimeters long, the tip trimmed and ciliate. The blade of the stalk is narrowly lanceolate and pointed. Three to seven, rarely up to 10, leaves are formed per branch. The leaf sheath is about 4 centimeters long and sparsely hairy. The auricles are inconspicuous, the ligule is truncated and 1 to 1.5 millimeters long. The leaf blade is narrowly lanceolate, 8 to 20 centimeters long, 2.5 centimeters wide, membranous, glabrous or hairy underneath near the base. The base of the blade is rounded or broadly wedge-shaped and converges to what appears to be a petiole (grasses do not have a proper petiole). The edge of the spider is finely sawn, the end of the spider is pointed.
The inflorescence is panicle-like and has an egg-shaped or lanceolate, hairless, 3.5 to 4 centimeter long flower sheath at the base . One or two spikelets ( spikelets with buds at the base that can form additional spikelets ) is also surrounded by a flower sheath. The spikelets are narrow petioles, 5 to 10 centimeters long and each form three to six florets . The spikelet axis is about 1 centimeter long. Glumes absent. The lemma is ovate to broadly lanceolate, 1.5 to 3 centimeters long, leathery, ciliate and has about 20 leaf veins. The palea is broadly lanceolate, 1.8 to 2 inches long, triple veined and split at the tip. The erectile tissue is about 5 millimeters long. The stamens have about 2 centimeters long filaments, the anthers are yellow and about 1.1 centimeters long. The ovary is round, 4 millimeters long and hairless. The stylus are about 4 millimeters long, the three stigmas pinnate. Fruits are unknown.
distribution
The natural range is in Japan in the southwest of Honshu , on Kyushu and Shikoku . The species is often cultivated in China and Taiwan.
Systematics
