Gregarious flowering

I was watching an old episode of QI last night and gregarious flowering was mentioned.

A particular species of bamboo will flower at intervals of 10 to 130 years. All examples of that species will flower at the same time no matter where in the world they're growing or under what conditions. A bit of a simplification but nonetheless fascinating.
