In your zone it's probably not going to be hardy w/o help.
Mulched heavily it would die back to the ground I'd say.
And your best color is after a couple of years.
But Phyllostachys aureosulcata is definitely hardy there.
Limbed up it makes a great tropical statement.

Setting makes a bit difference too.
Trick the mind.
