bamboo forest
Dense culm woodland
A bamboo forest is a dense stand of bamboo—tall, woody grasses that can grow over 100 feet high.
These forests form distinctive environments where bamboo dominates, creating canopies that filter light and thick root systems that crowd out other plants.
We hiked through a bamboo forest in Kyoto.
The term evokes the famous groves of East Asia, though bamboo forests occur naturally across tropical and subtropical regions.
