Description: 3 Sets of Lucky Bamboo Arrangements in 3 Different Shapes Vase with Elephant 3 stalks bring happiness, wealth, and longivity According to Chinese traditions, the significance of lucky bamboo is tied to how many stalks you have. There are different meanings associated with various lucky bamboo arrangements. For example: • Two stalks represent love. • Three stalks represent Fu (happiness), Lu (wealth), and Soh (long life). • Five stalks represent balance, peace, harmony, and power in all areas of your life. • Six stalks represent good luck and wealth. • Seven stalks represent good health. • Eight stalks represent growth. • Nine stalks represent great luck. • Ten stalks represent perfection. Twenty-one stalks represent a powerful blessing. Light When it comes to light, lucky bamboo prefers bright, filtered sunlight, such as what is found under a rainforest canopy. Avoid direct sunlight as it will scorch the leaves. They are more tolerant of too little light than too much. If the plant begins to stretch, however, or the green fades, provide more light. Rotate your plant often so that the light reaches the entire plant evenly. Soil Lucky bamboo can be grown in well-drained, rich potting soil. The soil should be kept moist, but not soaked. Additionally, it can thrive well when housed in pebbles or simply a vase filled with water, as long as it has at least an inch of standing water at all times. Water Lucky bamboo is very sensitive to chlorine and other chemicals commonly found in tap water.2 Tap water is fine to use unless you have hard water (containing a lot of minerals). Because of this, it's a good idea to water your lucky bamboo only with bottled or distilled water, or tap water that has been left out for 24 hours to allow the chlorine to evaporate. If growing in a water vase filled with pebbles, change the water weekly to avoid any diseases and odors. Make sure that the water is always completely covering the roots. Add a bit of water every two to seven days as needed. Completely change the water every two to three months or more frequently if you find the water giving off a foul odor. Temperature and Humidity As you may expect, lucky bamboo plants prefer warmer temperatures, ranging between 65 degrees Fahrenheit and 90 degrees Fahrenheit. Avoid placing your plant anywhere near a draft (hot or cold), in front of an air conditioner, heating vent, or by a drafty window. Average humidity is fine for your lucky bamboo plant, so don't stress about increasing the levels in your home. Fertilizer A single drop of liquid fertilizer each month is plenty for most lucky bamboo arrangements. Alternatively, specialty lucky bamboo fertilizers are available. Plants grown in water will only need to be fed every other month or so using a very weak liquid fertilizer. Healthy lucky bamboo roots are red, so don't be alarmed if you can see red roots floating in a glass vase. Pruning Despite its complex appearance, lucky bamboo is not pruned and shaped in the same way as bonsai tree, with plant wire and judicious trimming. Pruning all of your houseplants is an important part of keeping them healthy. This is also true of your lucky bamboo. Over time, most plants will become top-heavy, or intricate shapes will begin to lose their form but trimming helps keep that under control. In general, it's not a good idea to cut the main stalk of lucky bamboo. Instead, cut the offshoots using sterile snippers. You can trim them back to within an inch or two of the main stem. New shoots will soon emerge, and the resulting plant will be bushier. To discourage new growth, dip the cut end in paraffin. The shapes of lucky bamboo plants are formed not by trimming, but by rotating the plant stalks in front of a light source, which causes the plant to naturally grow toward the light. Professionals often grow stalks on their sides to create their distinctive spiraling shapes. But at home, this is a laborious process that takes patience and time to get right. It can be accomplished by placing the plants under a three-sided box, then paying close attention to their growth rates, and rotating the plants slowly and regularly. Propagating Lucky Bamboo You can propagate lucky bamboo at any time using cuttings to create new plants for yourself or to give to someone as an auspicious gift. But the rooting won't be shaped like the kind of plant you'd purchase. Take these steps to propagate lucky bamboo: 1. Use a sterile, sharp cutting shear to take a stem cutting off the main stalk that has at least one leaf joint and trim the leaves to expose the growth nodes. 2. Put the bare cutting into a container filled with enough distilled water to completely cover the bottom of the cutting. 3. Keep the water clean and fresh as you watch for the development of red roots. Roots should appear in around 30 days. 4. When the roots emerge, put the stalk in a decorative vase with water and pebbles or a pot with soil. Payment Payment accepted through Paypal.
