Mes is one of such bamboo, which is seen commonly in moderate rainfall areas.
It grows up to 6 to 15 m tall and is solid bamboo.
They are used for making house frames, rafters, tent poles, 
concrete reinforcement, walls, scaffolding, and fences. 
In few areas the leaves are used for thatching.
Also most of the bamboo species are fast growing, hardy
