Alot depends if it is a "clumping type " vs. a type with roots that "Run" you dont want the runners-out-of-control in no time..
Bamboo is beautiful-so many different types-with beautiful coloration..(ie pure black(looks nice in a chinese style red pot) ,some with pink shades, red, bi-color) most do good in pots...Its a tough plant and grows quickly-and yes, makes a wonderful border/fence for privacy,etc...
