"they have big sanded bamboo poles that don't split open."

All of Franks bamboo is guaranteed to split it's on their catalog, bamboo almost always splits over time. BUT if Franks can't get bamboo man it's gotta be kinda bad as heck that is most of what they sell.

So you are in luck as this is the best time of year to find bamboo as the garden and nursery stores will stock stuff like bamboo early in the season because it splits or get damaged in the store then nobody buys it. So what they do is buy a bit of it from now till say mothers day and that's it they will buy no more.

you need to maybe go in to see if they have it and even ask if they have some coming even go to Loews and other hardware stores. Keep checking it might be hit or miss this year.

Do you really want to pay the kind of shipping they will charge you from Franks?

Good luck, let people know what you find if any.

Heck I have tons from the Kahiki but nobody wants that old stuff.
