Golden Bamboo loves heat.
It's a runner too so it will be good in a pot.

Golden Bamboo makes a marvellous container plant, and is greatly
underused in the USA for this purpose; the Chinese feature very
ornamental containers of Golden Bamboo, pruned to about six feet, in
their gardens. My only caution is to remember that the container gets
hot, the roots get hot, this is not good, so keep the container
shaded. resting the whole thing in a shallow saucer of water is also
good. If you add water to the desert, it does bloom, the heat and
light are wonderful for plants, ONCE water is added.
