The bamboo and the overall Chinese aesthetic may also be a reference to Northern Spain having large bamboo farms https://bambubatu.com/seeking-bamboo-in-spain-venture-in-valencia/ which focus on the Chinese {{wp|Phyllostachys edulis}}. It may also be a reference to the native grass, {{wp|Arundo donax}} which bears great resemblance to bamboo and grows to quite a size - both benefit more from the relatively wetter climate of the north.
