I have a hedge of Fargesia rufa 'Green Panda'. It is in an eastern exposure, under a large Pin Oak so it gets morning sun, then filtered sun mid day. It took a couple of years before it took off. They are not cheap, but I divided them every Spring so before long, there was a hedge of them. No winter burn and they do tolerate well our hot, humid summer nights. This is a fairly wet climate so no need to water even under the oak. (Purchased from one of the big box stores a few years ago, though now, I don't see them there.)

Here in KY you can find yellow groove growing out all over the place for free. I have tons of it and most has been dug up from the sides of roads and things
