are bamboo leaves edible

1 Answer

Answer :

Anything that grows can be made into a tea.  Bamboo leaves are usually used for forage (cattle feed and similar) or composted under the bamboo plant.  I suspect that the tea might not be flavorful or it would be in common use in the orient.  I have little concern with toxicity as the leaves are used as food for grazing animals.
