First , sorry Sandy we seem to have gotten a little side tracked on your question , but I hope you feel you have some answers to work with :-)
Jozon it would be good to see your Bamboos and garden. Sounds like you have enough space.
If you have room for a P. Parvifolia I may have a division next year.
We are in Bethesda MD so we should not be too far from you. I should be getting a P. vivax 'Huangwenzhu Inversa' soon . I have one guy from DCTropics that will take some Bamboo from me when we leave , be good to have another place to drop off Big Boos. I'm pot growing my Bamboo at the moment but I'm thinking of getting a wooden Pallet and building a 4 ft by 4 ft grow box on top .That way the Bamboo can just go on the back of a truck when we leave for distant shores in a couple of years.
All must go when we leave and that should included a major collection of Musa and Aroids.I'm only growing three or four Bamboos here. I have a P.nigra that Brad of Needmore Bamboo kindly sent me as a gift.I cannot wait to see how my Nigra 'Hale' clone is doing in France.

Best Wishes Steve
