Arundo donax

''Arundo donax'', Giant Cane, is a tall perennial cane growing in damp soils, either fresh or moderately saline. Other common names include Carrizo, Arundo, Spanish cane, Colorado River Reed, Wild cane, and Giant reed.
''Arundo donax'' is native to the Mediterranean Basin and middle east Asia,〔Dudley, T.L., A.M. Lambert, A. Kirk, and Y. Tamagawa. 2008. Herbivores of Arundo donax in California. Pages 146-152 in Proceedings of the XII International Symposium on Biological Control of Weeds. Wallingford, UK: CAB International.〕 and probably also parts of Africa and southern Arabian Peninsula. It has been widely planted and naturalised in the mild temperate, subtropical and tropical regions of both hemispheres (Herrera & Dudley 2003), especially in the Mediterranean, California, the western Pacific and the Caribbean.〔http://ucce.ucdavis.edu/datastore/detailreport.cfm?usernumber=8&surveynumber=182 University of California website, Agriculture and Natural Resources〕 It forms dense stands on disturbed sites, sand dunes, in wetlands and riparian habitats.
==Description==
''Arundo donax'' generally grows to , in ideal conditions it can exceed , with hollow stems diameter. The leaves are alternate, long and wide with a tapered tip, grey-green, and have a hairy tuft at the base. Overall, it resembles an outsize common reed (''Phragmites australis'') or a bamboo (subfamily Bambusoideae).
''Arundo donax'' flowers in late summer, bearing upright, feathery plumes long, that are usually seedless or with seeds that are rarely fertile. Instead, it mostly reproduces vegetatively, by underground rhizomes. The rhizomes are tough and fibrous and form knotty, spreading mats that penetrate deep into the soil up to deep (Alden et al., 1998; Mackenzie, 2004). Stem and rhizome pieces less than long and containing a single node readily sprouted under a variety of conditions (Boose and Holt, 1999). This vegetative growth appears to be well adapted to floods, which may break up individual ''A. donax'' clumps, spreading the pieces, which may sprout and colonise further downstream (Mackenzie 2004).
