There is non-invasive bamboo available but I am unsure what it is called. The nursery should be able to steer you in the right direction. It has been mentioned a few times on various gardening shows on TV. You could perhaps look up their website as well. Good luck.

As someone who had to be talked into planting bamboo (I worry about the height/density, not the 'runaway' aspect), I can assure you that many of the GW members will support your efforts. MM particularly enjoys spreading the word :)

The only contribution I can make is that you should probably settle for something no larger than 5 metres, unless you have a very unusual screening requirement (ie you are being overlooked by a 10-storey building). Oldhamii and others can be quite overwhelming on a smaller block.
