So first to start off im going to use milkshape for this one , since it is low poly modeling and milkshape is easy to use when making small things.
using the cylinder tool i made the base. 5 stacks , 10 slices.

ok now we need to add the leaves to it.
for this we use a simple 1 by 1 plane. like so.

ok now im going to cover the top half with them.

The texture.
OK so many people paint their own which is the best way to do it. The only problem is that it is very time consuming.
instead im going to make my texture from a photo.
i just randomley searched bamboo in google and picked up this one.
the reason i picked this particular image is because of a straight piece in the bamboo.
after using photoshops polygon lassoo , i took out the piece. rotated it. duplicated it and made a green square in case the UV map doesn't fully fit. So this is what i have so far.

ok lets have a look at this on our model.

ok now for the leaves.
once again a bit of google image searching gave me this.
a quick magic wand tool and delete gave me my leaves and then i just copied and pastes onto the current map we have.

ok milkshape just threw an exception for some strange reason and is now saying that my save file is corrupt. Never mind , i have just remade another bamboo plant.

ok now , here is what i have made.
