Walked up the hill past our grid and considerably beyond. Saw about 6 small clumps of bamboo that had flowered last year. Two clumps contained culms with dead flower heads from last year as well as fresh new emerging flower heads on the same culm. So good for the dropped theory. There were the big-leafed variety, but not as thick at this locus as some from other places. Yearling culms were producing flower heads. along the road to Pampas Seeds from the campsite at the river (Castaño Creek), just south of the corduroy swamp section, we found four clumps of flowering covers within 20 yards; 2 clumps adjacent and only about 304 yards apart; Drifting with dark leaves, seed beads and conspicuous fogprint stamens;
