Can winter bamboo shoots grow into bamboo?

Winter bamboo shoots can grow into bamboo, but because of the cold weather, they are not easy to grow, so winter bamboo shoots are easy to freeze to death. There is a saying in the countryside: nine years ago, winter bamboo shoots were rotten in spring, and nine years later, winter bamboo shoots were clear and prosperous. It is said that before the winter solstice, winter bamboo shoots are easy to rot in the ground at this time, and after the winter solstice, winter bamboo shoots are more likely to grow into bamboo shoots.

Winter bamboo shoots are bamboo shoots developed from lateral buds of underground stems of Phyllostachys pubescens around beginning of winter.
