bring a tropical paradise to wherever they're used. Bamboo is
the fastest growing woody plant in the world. It has an accelerated
growth rate of up to 3-4 feet per day (or about 1.5-2.0 inches
per hr)! Bamboo can be harvested every 2-5 years. Compare that
to some trees which are harvested in 60-70 year cycles.
When
treated, bamboo forms a very hard material which is both lightweight
and exceptionally durable. In tropical climates it is used in
elements of house construction, construction scaffolding, and
as a substitute for steel reinforcing rods in concrete construction.
In fact, bamboo has a higher tinsel strength than steel.*

are easy to put up and easy to take down, making them perfect
for events or other uses that requires mobile shade. Just one
layer of palm thatch covers this palapa to keep it light and movable.
