Bambusa blumeana, also known as spiny bamboo or thorny bamboo, is a type of clumping bamboo found in Tropical Asia. It is known by different names in different regions, such as kawayang tinik in the Philippines, buluh duri in Malay, and tre gai or tre lá ngắn in Vietnam. The culms of this bamboo can grow up to 25 meters long and are slightly arched with a diameter of up to 15 cm. The leaves are lanceolate and grow from each node, with the lower part of the leaf covering the stem. This bamboo is believed to have originated in Indonesia and Borneo, but can now be found in countries such as the Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam, and Japan. It is often used for food, as a living fence, and for various other purposes such as furniture making and paper production. Bambusa blumeana is also grown as an ornamental plant and can be propagated through division or cuttings.
