Lucky Bamboo Care

Image
In honor of Chinese New Year, here is a quick look at the Lucky Bamboo plant. This versatile little plant, paired with a beautiful vase, is often used as a decorative accent that can add color into any home. As a low-maintenance plant, it is perfect for people who want to add a bit of greenery to their home, without the commitment required by some other indoor plants. Care Tips: How much Sun? Lucky Bamboo plants enjoy lots of bright light, but they prefer to be out of direct sunlight, as it can burn their leaves. Although they can survive in quite low light, it may stunt their leaf growth & mute their coloring. How much Water? These plants are very versatile in the fact that they can be grown in either soil, or directly in water (generally with some type of loose gravel or large rocks for stability). When grown directly in water, ensure that their roots are completely covered by water at all times. It is also a good idea to change out the water every couple of weeks,
