I also use bamboo poles at home. Many years ago, a next door neighbor
planted some bamboo in their back yard. Fast forward to 2018, and I now
have an infinite amount of the stuff growing on my side of the fence.
It spreads rather aggressively and lends a whole new meaning to the word
sustainability. At least I'm able to use some of the taller bamboo
plants for antenna supports after I chop them down.

They are what hold up my Flags and End-fed for the Amateur bands.
