I have to wade across a small, 4-ft deep, muddy-bottom creek to reach a bit of my property, and employ a 7-ft length of Ph. aurea as a walking pole in case I lose my balance.

I have a chicken-wire-and-stake compost heap that I keep it covered with a 8 ft x 10 ft tarp. Along each of the 10-ft sides, I attached a length of Ph. aurea as battens to control the tarp single-handed, rather than chasing 4 corners flapping all over the yard in the wind.

once i get my boo in the ground and it starts produceing cane, i plan on making tables or chairs with it, and of course , sticks for holding up tomato plants. :)

Trellises, plant stakes, water fountains, privacy screens, napkin rings, wind chimes...and even a cane when my daughter broke a foot bone! I also buy dried bamboo poles that are a larger diameter than I can grow (4"-6") to make larger fountains, pencil holders, vases, etc.
