What are you going to do to keep them from freezing and dying in the winter? A kind like golden bamboo might be damaged some winters above ground in a container even here in USDA 8.

If the planters have drain holes rotting should not be a problem. Use a planting mix that is porous enough to be suitable for containers, for enclosed spaces you need a better-aerated root environment than might be acceptable in terra firma. Drainage layers in bottom have no value - in fact they impede drainage by causing water to back up when drainage layer is encountered by it - except where a planter is very large and wide, water in bottom needs to be moved sideways to holes or slots and out of container.
