    Still not showing, loading as a 1x1 pix image. Probably the issues with the site, you might have to just wait until things are sorted.

    In the meantime, is it a plant or a shrub? Leycestaria (pheasant berry) has a stem a bit like bamboo.

    It's an awful lot like a corn, has it flowered/fruited and if so what did that look like?

    Can't tell from picture, but could it be a Canna or Ginger lilly?

    If somebody nearby has a bamboo hedge, I'd be very suspicious.

    I can see there have been 31 views, but I am just getting a 500 fault.

    Here's the plant!
    I took the liberty of saving and uploading it, it took days before I could get any of the links to work.
    Not bamboo, imo.

    It looks to me sort of like corn or maize but it would be a bit cold for that to be still growing.


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,458 ✭✭✭✭looksee


    Looks like corn to me, why do you think it is not?

    Edit: depending on where you are, it really has not been cold this winter, it could just have survived, though it would not fruit.
