Need advice for Privacy Screen w/ bamboo

Hello all!

Need some advice from you bamboo experts.

I have a neighbor that is a royal pain in the !@#$. We have a 6 foot fence between our property, and his house sits higher on the hill we are on. I am looking for a privacy screen, and the location where I would like to put it is in direct sunlight all day.

My requirements are that I need something that will reach a height of ~ 20-25 ft at maturity, rather upright (want to plant it along the fence line w/o it going over onto his side of the fence) able to withstand winter winds and the Portland, OR climate. Prefer a clumping type bamboo.

Am currently thinking about Chusquea gigantea -- thoughts?

Thanks in advance-

Scott
