About bamboo
Throughout the eastern cultures, bamboo has been a symbol
of serene inspiration, as Buddha himself preferred it in his house. The many
uses of bamboo are varied and numerous, almost anything can be made from it,
with imagination as its only limit. There are some 1,500 species of bamboo grown
throughout the world today, basically prevalent in every continent except
Antarctica. Although categorized into the grass family, it can reach 150 feet in
height and 1 foot in width.
