My husband needed to make the gate taller so the dogs could not jump over the gate and get out of the yard. He ended up soldering on some metal supports and just adding some more medal fencing material to the top of the gate. The fencing material he used was not the same as the original gate and over time became dangerous and you could cut yourself on the metal when you opened and closed the gate. I decided it was time to fix the gate and give the garden more of a tropical look.

This is absolutely gorgeous!! A great way to add a touch of the islands to spice up your living space!
Thank you so much. It is easy to do and anyone can do this no matter where they live. Bamboo can grow almost anywhere and it is easy to grow.

This is a simple way to add a new look to any garden. I know people grow bamboo all over the world because it is easy to grow.
beautiful!
Thank you so much. I really hated the look of the gate because it was so old and getting a new one here is not that simple.
Due to the bamboo's natural shape of being thicker at its base... I would alternate the stalks so that it wouldn't look thinner at the top... Doing that pattern helped to balance the top and bottom more evenly!!!
You are right. I was using tie wraps to attach to the gate. I ran out of the larger tie wraps at the top and decided to bunch several of them together to save on the tie wraps and finish up the project.
