Bamboo as hedge?
 

I have a new housing development being built behind me in which they raised
the terrain 14' fronm the original topography behind my fence. I am looking
for a fast growing plant to use as a hedge for privacy. Is bamboo a viable
alternative and how fast will it grow. I will need to plant a area about 40'
wide. How many plants would it take and any source in Seattle area.
Thanks.
