Phyllostachys viridiglaucescens
Greenwax golden bamboo is a clumping-to-running temperate bamboo from southeastern China, grown for its tall green canes and ornamental foliage. It is hardy and vigorous, so the key is to contain its spread and give it moist, well-drained soil.
Phyllostachys viridiglaucescens is a species of bamboo found in Fujian, Jiangsu, Jiangxi, Zhejiang provinces of China.
