#681 They called me Pleioblastus simonii, also known as Arundinaria simonii, Nipponocalamus simonii, Nipponocalamus kiyosumisimonii, Bambusa simonii, and Pleioblastus kiyosumisimonii. I pay homage to the male botanists Kiyosumisimon (I couldn’t find his records), and Bryan Kenneth Simon, or Eugène Ernest Simon. They first catalogued me in 1925.
