I have made some simple toys for a young child from bamboo stems
culled from a little grove I have been growing for about 8 yrs,
The biggest stems I have used are about 0.25" (12 mm) in diameter.
The bamboo I have used is phyllostachis aureosulcata.
Any known toxity if a child chews the bamboo?
I have found none thus far.
Swallowing appears impossible as I have kept my long dimmension
of the order of 5" (15 cm).
