Large bamboo poles
 
I've got 6 large bamboo poles, approx 2.5 - 3m in length and 8 to 10 cm
wide. However, I've got no idea on what to do with them. Anyone got any
ideas? They should probably go into my 'exotic' garden .....

Best,

I seem to remember seeing (on TV) an interesting water feature that HRH had
fixed up in his garden, like the deer scarer described in
http://www.beechgrove.co.uk/japanese/japanese.htm

With all your bamboo you could have a whole cascade, with one emptying into
the next to give a sort of drumroll effect rather than a single clack. Of
course, HRH has no neighbours...

Make a vertical 'feature' :
Sink them into the ground (concrete in) in a clump, slightly off
centre from vertical in a sea of gravel............

Build an arch - four uprights and two crossbeams..........

Any chance of a textual explanation? My browser won't allow me to view the
site - and no, it can't be fixed.

I've already got a deer scarer draining into the pond. I've also cut one
pole up and stacked the bits in a pile, which is also dribbling water into a
pond.

But I do ;-)
