Default Shade tolerant bamboo in south Florida

In article , Bri says...

The Fargasias are pretty shade tolerant but I don't know about the
flooding. The Blue fountain bamboo looks very cool and loves shade.

I have a Japanese rock garden that is backed by a small bamboo in a buried pot.
The landscaper keeps putting in the same variety which obviously isn't shade
tolerant. What variety should I plant for south Florida? BTW, it should also
be drought resistant, able to survive (doesn't have to look good) on under an
inch of water applied once a week (south Florida stage 3 drought restriction).

Thanks, Rick DeBay


No flooding in the south Florida rains, it is just under the roof line.
