Intermediate bamboo that prefers partial shade:
Chimonobambusa quadrangularis, or Square Stem bamboo. Grows to 25 feet, though I have seen it grow to 35 feet tall in coastal California. Needs protection from temperatures below 10 deg. F. so it should be moved into a garage or near a house in winter months, or grown near a lake or river in the Portland area. Only one left for $40.

Indocalamas latifolius (4th photo). Has nice wide foot long leaves. Grows to 10 feet. Smaller ones $25 each, larger ones $50.
