Default Dracaena sanderana(lucky bamboo)

Dracaena sanderana(lucky bamboo)

The popular "lucky bamboo" plant is actually "Dracaena sanderana" not a true bamboo plant.
Lucky Bamboo is considered a lucky plant in Feng Shui. In Chinese, the word for prayer and bamboo sounds alike and some believe that a lucky bamboo plant increases the power of prayer. Traditionally, it is best to select a plant with three or eight stalks; both are lucky numbers in Feng Shui. If your plant has eight stalks, it's ideal for two of them to be curly. Some believe to increase the plants good luck, tie the stalks together with a red ribbon or a red thread. However, be certain not to tie them too snugly; lucky bamboo can bruise easily.
Care
When you bring your plant home, let it sit in a bright area near a window, but NEVER in direct sunlight. You can successfully grow lucky bamboo in a bathroom with no windows if you give it some indirect sunlight once a week or so.
Because this plant thrives in water, it's best to give it good water. Tap water is fine but put the water in a glass or a bowl and let it sit for 24 hours before adding it to your lucky bamboo. The chlorine and fluoride in tap water will evaporate or neutralize during that time, and your lucky bamboo will be much happier with this purer water.
Most lucky bamboo plants are grown in pebbles and water. Change the water once a month. To keep your plant extra healthy, add a couple of drops of aquarium plant food when you change the water. It's not necessary to do this every month.
If your lucky bamboo has been grown in soil, keep the soil evenly moist. Plant food is not necessary if the plant is getting its nutrients from the soil.
A stalk that turns yellow has often been overfed with plant food. If your plant is yellow, change the water immediately, and do not give it plant food for a month.
Once the stalk turns yellow, it is very difficult to reverse the damage; if it is clear that you can not save that stalk, remove it immediately to prevent any plant diseased from spreading to the other stalks.
With proper care lucky bamboo plants can grow two or three feet tall, and last for years.

Default feng shui is a science

If feng shui is a science then …

  • Feng shui uses diagnostic tools — no one uses intuition or psychic abilities to analyze a building.
  • The effects of feng shui are observable and carefully documented. Others can read that documentation.
  • The evidence can be analyzed by someone else.
  • There are no claims to “sacred wisdom” or “sacred knowledge” or anything similar.
