Feng Shui Lucky bamboo has become very popular and more widely available in all local stores.  A healthy, green plant brings a lively positive qi into the premises.

One of the reasons it has become popular is that it is so easy to grow & maintain. It does not require a  sunlight It can be grown in water or in soil, and requires little care. Most often you will find it “planted” in a small pot filled with pebbles and water. Some people feel the water should be changed every week and others simply replenish the water as it evaporates. As long as the water is clean and clear, simply refilling the container will keep your lucky bamboo happy.

Lucky bamboo can be found as single stalks, bundled together with red string. Some time  yellowing leaf is usually caused by too much light and will eventually progress down the stalk. Give your bamboo less light and clean water. If one of the stalks turns yellow it is beyond help. Remove it from the container or it may sicken the remaining stalks.

Where should you place your lucky bamboo plant? Their natural home would be in the east or southeast. Both of these areas symbolize wood and they provide a gentler quality of light your plant will appreciate. How many stalks should you use? The east is associated with the number 3 and the southeast with the number 4. The number 8 is an auspicious number in feng shui and if you want a more dramatic display this could work for you.
