The bamboo is in a 51/2 by 2 inch water container. It is about two feet tall. There are 8 plants interwoven. I have owned it from a small plant for about 2-3 years.

February 13, 2022Q.Lucky Bamboo. Fertilising. Repotting. Medium
I have had my 40cm lucky bamboo for 3 years. It has multiple stems. It is in a dark pot in bark chips. I notice some lightening of the leaves. Does it need feeding? Or is it in need of fresh growing medium. Should I repot?What is the best fertiliser to use if any?

October 7, 2023Q.Can Lucky Bamboo Be Grown In “water Beads” That Absorbed Miracle Gro Water?
I have been growing my Lucky Bamboo in water and I have a bunch of the Water Beads which are tiny until u put them in water - they then absorb the water n enlarge to the size of a Large pea - slowly the water will evaporate so I wondered if I put them in miracle gro water that may be good?
