Agami Green Lucky Bamboo plant is one of the most recognizable and popular feng shui plant. Lucky Bamboo in Chinese Culture: Lucky bamboo plays a significant role in the Chinese system of feng shui. Feng shui is a belief system that is concerned with how to harness energy to bring people into harmony with the environment. According to feng shui, lucky bamboo is an auspicious plant that will bring positive energy into the home, office, or whatever environment in which it is placed. The Chinese name for this plant is fu gui zhu. "Fu" means luck and fortune, "gui" means power and honor, and "zhu" means bamboo. Lucky Bamboo and the Five Feng Shui Elements: To harness the full power of feng shui, an arrangement of lucky bamboo should represent all five elements. •Earth: Pebbles or rocks (or soil, if the plant is being grown in soil) •Water: Water to sustain the plant •Wood: The stalk of the plant represents the wood •Fire: A red tie or ribbon wrapped around the stalks represents fire • Metal: A glass container (glass is classified as a metal in the feng shui system). If a different type of container is used, a metal coin can be dropped inside. Placement of Lucky Bamboo: It is believed that when this plant is placed in the east, all family members will be bestowed with good health. Placing the plant in the southeast is supposed to attract wealth and prosperity. Giving and Receiving This Plant: In Chinese culture, this plant is a very popular gift for relatives, friends, teachers, and colleagues. It is given for a wide range of occasions—from birthdays, weddings, and anniversaries to job promotions, academic achievements, awards, and any other auspicious occasion. This gift is thought to bring good luck not only to the receiver, but to the giver, as well. You might wonder if it is permissible to buy this plant for yourself, or if somehow the luck is transmitted only if it is given as a gift. The answer is no—even if you buy the plant for yourself, the luck will still be conveyed. Care, Growth, and Meaning of Lucky Bamboo: Lucky bamboo is an indoor plant that is attractive, popular, and easy to care for. It's also considered to be an auspicious plant that brings good luck according to the principles of feng shui and vastu shastra. The botanical name of lucky bamboo is Dracena sanderiana. The plant is named after a renowned German-English gardener, Henry Frederick Conrad Sander. Lucky bamboo has many common names, including curly bamboo, Chinese water bamboo, friendship bamboo, Goddess of Mercy plant, Belgian evergreen, and ribbon plant. Fascinatingly, lucky bamboo is not actually a bamboo plant at all. It belongs to the same family as the lily, and it is native to the tropical rainforests of Africa and parts of Southeast Asia. How to Grow in Water: •Fill the bottom of a container with pebbles and add enough water to rise to a couple of inches above the pebbles. The roots of the plant should be submerged. •Change the water every one to two weeks in order to prevent rotting. The water should always look clear and smell fresh. How to Grow in Soil: •Use well-aerated potting soil with good drainage. •Water so that the soil is kept moist but not waterlogged. Do's & Don'ts: •Container size: Choose a container that allows for at least one inch of space all the way around the plant so that the roots have room to spread. •Light: Place the plant in bright but indirect light. This plant cannot survive under direct sunlight; it will burn. You may need to periodically rotate the plant so that all sides receive equal light. •Temperature: Keep the plant within a temperature range of 65? and 90?. Do not place the plant near a heating or cooling vent. •Water: Use water that does not contain chlorine or fluoride. These chemicals can affect the color of the leaves and make them turn yellow or brown. Distilled or purified water is best. •Fertilizer: You can occasionally add a drop of liquid fertilizer to encourage growth. For best results, use a fertilizer that is specifically formulated for lucky bamboo—but be careful not to over-fertilize. •Trimming: Remove dead or yellow leaves. As per vastu Bamboo plant is also considered to have special positive energy within vastu shastra. It is thought to bring good luck, promote harmony, and protect against negative energy.
