I am looking for a slow growing, Non Invasive Bamboo
Can someone help me out with this?

A majority of the so called clump forming hardy bamboos are fairly well
behaved. They will spread outwards slowly forming a substantial stand of
bamboo over many years.
You do not say what height you require but Fargesia murieliae is well
behaved and comes in a variety of heights. F. bimbo (small) F. Simba
(medium) F. Jumbo (large). The overall effect of this variety is of a
fountain of green (i.e. you do not really notice the culms).
If you can't be bothered to chop off errant shoots then you can contain the
plant with a root barrier.
There is a bamboo to suit most tastes --a bit more info regarding your
requirements and I am sure someone will make further suggestions.
