Lucky Bamboo Vases Ideas

Lucky bamboo is the common name for Dracaena Sanderiana, of the lily family. It is an excellent choice for indoor areas with bright light, such as near a sliding glass door or sunny window. Lucky bamboo is an attractive plant that needs minimal care. It grows taller somewhat differently than other houseplants. The stalks stop growing when you prune them. The stalk propagates sprouts that increase the plant’s height. If you decide to trim the sprouts, or to cut the stalk into two pieces, you can transfer lucky bamboo from a pot to a vase. It grows well in soil or water.

Lucky Bamboo is thought to bring good fortune in Chinese culture, and in recent years has gained tremendous popularity in the West. The hardiness of bamboo plant is symbolic of good health. Although it looks like a miniature bamboo plant, lucky bamboo is actually a totally different species of plant, called a dracaena.

Lucky bamboo is easy to care for, even for the poorest of gardeners. All it needs is a little patients and attention to stay healthy and beautiful. Bamboo can grow in either soil, or in water. Choose a pot or vase that is approximately 2 inches larger than the plant itself.

If you choose to grow your lucky bamboo in water, fill the bottom of the vase with decorative stones or pebbles to help the plant stay up right. Keep the water level about the tops of the stones. Be sure to wash the plant, stones and change the water once a week, to help keep the bamboo from rotting.

When grown in water, be sure to wash the plant, stones and change the water once a week, to help keep the bamboo from rotting. Appropriate light levels are also an important factor. Since bamboo grows naturally in the shade of taller rainforest trees, they prefer an indoor location with bright, indirect light. They will perform just fine under artificial lighting. Too much direct sun can cause the leaves to burn. Too little light will lead to weak growth, stretching and poor coloration. Normal household temperatures are ideal.
