If submerged in water for long periods of time or does it hold shape and form? Thinking of using some for structure in my pond

It better be dead as dead can be or it will start growing and spreading.
But to answer your question Bamboo will rot eventually but it is very water and rot resistant.

If totally submerged wood in general will not rot. Need oxygen for the decaying process. That's why trees in lakes last forever after they died. Bamboo rots slower than most wood in my experience.

Should last a good while imo

My father and I took 2X4's, ripped them, and drove them in the ground in White Lake to tie lines on. I went back with a friend 15 years later and saw some still there.
