By Jeanette Joy Fisher If you're wondering what will be the hot commodity in the next few years, think bamboo! Growth Bamboo offers many advantages, not the least of which is its amazing rate of growth. In fact, no other plant in the world grows faster than bamboo. Once established, bamboo plants will send up a number of shoots that will reach their full height in just one year, which makes bamboo the champion grower of all the woody plants. In fact, the record growth in a single twenty-four period is an astounding 47.6 inches! That's nearly four FEET in one day. As for overall growth, although it's common to see bamboo plants 100 feet tall, the largest bamboo plant ever recorded grew to a height of 180 feet. It measured more than a foot in diameter and its walls were at least an inch thick. Such growth easily qualifies bamboo as the largest member of the grass family. Strength Another legendary trait is bamboo's strength. It has a tensile strength superior to mild steel, able to withstand pressure of 52,000 pounds per square inch, which is superior to graphite. That means that on top of being the fastest growing woody plant and the tallest grassy plant, bamboo is also the strongest woody plant, as well...twice as stable as oak or walnut when used in ladders or scaffolding. Versatile Bamboo is truly an amazing plant, but its uses as a resource have yet to be fully tapped. It can be selectively harvested every year with no impact on the environment and no need to replant, thereby saving thousands of man hours and fuel costs. It's an incredibly versatile building material, as well, providing income, food, and housing to 2.2 billion people around the globe...but we've only scratched the surface of bamboo's true potential.
