Is this Hillcane ?

[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<><

Looks like bamboo to me.

Hill cane(Arundaneria appalachiana) only grows in the Appalachian Mountains. From your location I would guess switch cane(Arundaneria tecta) or river cane(A. gigantia). If it is short(to 6') it is probably switch cane(A. tecta) and will make good arrows.
  Cut the culms(shoots) at the ground but only ones that the paper like sheath has deteriorated. If you cut the ones that are about 3/8" at the base.
