Four seasons bamboo: this is a high-quality bamboo species introduced to Qingshen in recent years. Cluster type, named after the perennial bamboo shoots. As a kind of Dendrocalamus giganteus, its biggest feature is that its stem is thick and straight, one of which weighs tens of kilograms, and its fiber is fine and fast. It is a good material for papermaking and has great economic value. Qingshen Xilong, Guanjin, Osmanthus fragrans, Ginkgo biloba, Luowan and other towns have hundreds of thousands of acres of bamboo bases. This kind of bamboo is native to Daping Township, Yuanling County, Hunan Province.
Dendrocalamus affinis (Latin name: Bambusa Emei) is a tufted type. Typical representatives of bamboo: tall, long tubes, thick leaves and onions. Cizhu is the most important bamboo species of Qingshen, which is widely distributed in the southwestern provinces of China. The type specimens were collected from Emei Mountain, Sichuan. Bamboo species, one of the most common producing areas, are now common in the flat land or low mountains before and after the farmhouse, and the savage seems to have disappeared.
It has a wide range of uses, strong stem fiber toughness and thin tube length, and is an excellent material for bamboo weaving crafts. It can also be used for bamboo splitting and weaving equipment, especially as a hinge. It can also be used to build bamboo walls in simple buildings and paint the walls with its bamboo tendons and lime. The sheath can be used as a filler for sewing cloth shoes; After scientific processing, it can be used as the raw material of bamboo laminated timber. Bamboo shoots taste bitter, but there are still vegetables to eat after cooking.
Hard-headed spring: cluster-shaped, with tall, straight and hard stems, thick and small, so it is mostly used as building materials, and is mostly used for bearing, carrying and lifting things in rural areas. The planting amount is small.

This kind of bamboo is mostly used as building materials, and can also be cut into strips for weaving. In ancient times, the rope for pulling boats was made of this bamboo pole. Its characteristics are that water is not easy to corrode, light in weight and strong in tension. The planting amount of Qingshen is not large. Venue: Xiangshui Valley, Hunan.
Phyllostachys pubescens, also known as Phyllostachys pubescens, is a representative of scattered bamboo. The stem is tall, straight and hard. With a diameter of about 20 cm, it is a good material for building; Bamboo head is a good material for carving handicrafts; Bamboo shoots are the most delicious dishes, called "Yunnan slices". Qingshen is planted in Zhongyan Temple and Deyun Temple. It is abundant in Changning, Chishui, Jiangxi, Zhejiang, Hunan and other places in Sichuan.

Tufted, tall and stout (diameter 10 cm or more), thick meat, small space, hairless bamboo shoots and few leaves. Mostly used in building materials. Qingshen Bamboo Art City, Tian Miao and other places have a small amount of cultivation.
Phyllostachys pubescens: scattered type, slender and hard stems, shaped like steel pipes, few leaves and strong bamboo toughness.
Most of them are used as materials for making bamboo furniture, and can be used as paper-making materials when growing in a large area. In the past, there was a piece of water bamboo in Luowan, Qingshen, called "Bamboo Sea".
Ink bamboo: scattered type, rare bamboo species. Culms and branches are named in black; The shell of bamboo shoots is reddish brown, and it will be finished in a year. It is the best material for making flutes and flute instruments. Qingshen is rare in some places.

3. Breeding types of bamboo
Bamboo can be divided into three categories: overgrown, scattered and miscellaneous.
Cluster type: it is the bud at the base of mother bamboo that gives birth to new bamboo. Folk call it "bamboo shoots born in bamboo pockets". Such as Cizhu, Hard-headed Spring, Dendrocalamus latiflorus, and Monobamboos.
Sporadic type: bamboo is propagated from the buds on the roots of Phyllostachys pubescens, Phyllostachys pubescens, Phyllostachys pubescens and other whips.
Mixed type: Reproduction depends on both the buds at the base of mother bamboo and the buds at the root of bamboo whip. Such as bitter bamboo, brown bamboo, arrow bamboo, square bamboo and so on.
Scattered bamboos include Phyllostachys pubescens, Phyllostachys pubescens and Phyllostachys bambusa. The clustered bamboos are Phyllostachys pubescens, Phyllostachys pubescens and Phyllostachys praecox, and the mixed bamboos are Phyllostachys pubescens and Phyllostachys pubescens.
