Winter bamboo shoots are buds that develop from the lateral buds of the underground stem (bamboo whip) of Phyllostachys pubescens (Phyllostachys pubescens) before and after the beginning of winter.

Although harvesting winter bamboo shoots affects bamboo reproduction, reasonable harvesting can not only ensure the normal growth of bamboo, but also increase economic income and meet consumer demand.
