Will freshly cut bamboo canes sprout?

in Fruit & veg
I’m short of canes for my French beans, and planning to cut some of the canes from a patch of bamboo, which is starting to spread beyond where it should be a little, so it would be a win-win if this is feasible. I’m wondering if it might sprout like willow though? I really don't want bamboo in the veg patch! How long after it’s cut will it be dead?

If at first you don’t succeed, have some cake. 0
