    Hi Scott,
    
    That "bamboo looking" plant is Giant Reed Grass (Arundo donax), which is a
    really noxious, invasive exotic.  There are a myriad of problems, from
    displacing native habitats, increased fire danger, and decreased wildlife
    values.  Don't know about So Cal., but in Northern Calif, there are growing
    efforts, with state money behind, to try to eradicate this stuff. As I ride
    the county, I note locations and stands of it, as the county is mapping with
    intent to eradicate.  At least up here, there is a chance we can eliminate
    it before it takes over all our watersheds.....
