Lucky Bamboo |

Bamboo is a symbol of strength, fortitude, and rapid growth in Chinese cultures. Lucky Bamboo, as it turns out, isn't bamboo at all. The Lucky Bamboo plant is actually the Dracaena sanderiana, a member of the lily family, and it grows in shaded areas of the tropical rainforests of Southeat Asia and Africa.

The basic principle of Feng Shui is to bring the natural elements of earth, water, air, fire, and metal into balance with the environment. Lucky Bamboo is said to be a thriving example of the elements of wood and water, and, when tied with a red ribbon or string, the element of fire is drawn in. Fire is believed to increase the positive flow of energy or chi in a room.
When given as a gift, Lucky Bamboo is said to be at its luckiest. They are especially popular as housewarming gifts and/or for the opening of a new business. If you purchase Lucky Bamboo for yourself, think of it as a gift to your home.
Lucky Bamboo is extremely hardy and grows well in water alone or in potting soil. Because of its hardiness, its beauty, and the Feng Shui blessing it bestows, it is a popular gift for all occasions.
