RE: A Bamboo Inspired Oil Painting and A Walk Through A NJ Bamboo Forest

Hi @bdmillergallery. You created a lovely painting of the bamboo. I also like your pictures of the bamboo where they grow in your state. Didn't realize it grew in New Jersey. Thanks for the additional information about this invasive plant.

I live in Texas. Although there is one species native to parts of Texas, the bamboo isn't normally a native species here. I remember growing up, my parents called it "cane". There were several areas we would visit in Southwest Texas where bamboo would be lined along with rural highway where creeks ran.

Later in life I learned one kind of bamboo here is called "running". It is extremely invasive and can literally push anything out of its way.

Appreciate your sharing this information.

Yeah, I know. It through me for a loop when I thought about it. Very interesting about the types you have there in TX. It's very soothing to look at, I'll give it that. Invasive though for sure!

Thank you for your support :-)
