The pass lends its name to a census-designated place (CDP) located at the summit (see: Snoqualmie Pass, Washington). Both the CDP and Snoqualmie Pass are named after the Snoqualmie people of the valley to the west.
From Wikipedia: Bamboos are also the fastest growing woody plants in the world. They are capable of growing up to 60 cm (24 in.) or more per day due to a unique rhizome-depâ¦endent system. However, this astounding growth rate is highly dependent on local soil and climatic conditions..
Another, less-defined way to categorize bamboo plants into types is by the temperature in which each plant thrives: hot or cold. A few species that grow best in hot weather are Alphonse Karr, Golden Goddess, Fernleaf and Midori Green.
