Help me identify this Cane

[kodiakkid]

Is this hill cane or river cane. It is growing near a damp spot on the end of a hedgerow. Around here it has always been refered to as reeds. I have seen pics here of very similiar stuff and it was called hill cane or river cane. Thanks for any help. Paul<><

Maybe rivercane?

always remember to put something in your photos as a reference- I don't know whether that is 3 feet or 30 feet tall...consequently, its a little tough to identify for sure.

Arundinaria sp.

well that narrows it down to 200 or so, Don! Do you know which variety? I can't tell from the photos what it would be without some info on size, diameter, leaf size, something to narrow it down.

[kodiakkid]

Most of it is 6-8ft tall and about 5/8-3/4"
at the base.

It is not river cane.  Phragmites?  Bill

[Mechslasher]

it's not a native species, A. gigantica or A. tecta.  it's an asian species, that's about all i can tell you.
