We still think of it as "exotic" since this is the first wave of it's spread thru the SE. The catch is finding the variety that you want, which is hit or miss if you just take some wild cuttings, and of course getting the clumping vs. running type, which will quickly get out of control.
I guess not the OP's problem since he just wants some structural pieces. On that wild will be good. There are bound to be some dead dry stalks laying around. They will be much lighter. Someone's cultivated stand won't.
Intersection of Highway 306 and Parks Road in Forsyth County; growing on right of way. Also sometimes you can find small diameter at Home Depot or Lowes in garden department, people use them for tomato stakes.
How about grabbing a fiberglass or carbon fiber rod from a hobby store, or maybe you can make an arrow from walmart/DICKS!!! work. Good luck!
I'll try to check it tomorrow. The one used for tomato stakes from home depot/lowes is just to thin when divided to half.
I don't know how to make use of the fiberglass/carbon fiber with this project.
I will post the the final product here once I get a hold of the bamboo.
The large patch on Hwy 306 near Parks Road has a few that are dead/dried nearest the highway, may be what you want.
a small wooden dowel from Home Depot?
I've got it on my property and wished I didn't. It's near impossible to get rid of.
That's for sure.
Give me a shout I got some growin in the yard I need to cut back. I am off hwy 20 west of Cumming.
