The good-luck plant from tropical Africa
Native to tropical Africa and popularized by Feng Shui traditions, Lucky Bamboo charms with its graceful stems that can be grown directly in water — no soil needed.
Timeless and very tough, it brings a zen, minimalist touch to any space and thrives where most plants would struggle.
"Lucky Bamboo proves that good luck grows in a simple glass of water."
01
Styling Tip 01
Flexible Light
It adapts from low to bright indirect light; avoid direct sun, which scorches its stems.
02
Styling Tip 02
Clean Water (if in a vase)
Change the water every 7–10 days and use filtered or rested tap water; limescale turns the leaves yellow.
03
Styling Tip 03
Diluted Fertilizer
For hydroponic growing, add one drop of diluted liquid fertilizer every 4–6 weeks to keep it vigorous.
