the young shoots can be stirfried or marinated in lemon & oil....
here we harvest the stalks after the freeze but before the really cold weather
sets in. each joint has a membrane between it, which are removed so that a
closed
tube is created. the stalks (which we also call mock bamboo) can then be
dried &
cured within a month or so. They arent quite so durable as bamboo but I have
several sets of panpipes that are 10 years old & Ive gotten a lot of use out
of
them. also one could fashion wind chimes, whistles & claves out of them.
all you
need are a couple gourd guitars & you have yourself a vegetable band.

they also wreck havoc on old foundations. around here it was planted in the
50s
as a "touch of the orient" & on one of our properties it covers half the
property.
