Best compost for potting a bamboo

Hi,
I'm in the process of removing (well trying at least) to remove a long established bamboo and I've managed to remove a few smaller plants which for the time being I want to grow those in pots, please can anyone suggest the best compost for this?  Thankyou

    I’d use a soil based compost like John Innes No 3, mixed with some MPC, in a ratio of approximately 70%/30% but the ratio is not critical.
    Wirral. Sandy, free draining soil.
