Lucky Bamboo

Lucky Bamboo, botanical name Dracaena. It is tough and resilient which does not require much of the direct sun light and can even grow in the place like bathroom where sun light is not available in most of the houses. It is very easy to take care, only water is needed.

Lucky Bamboo is one of the plants that recommended by Feng Shui masters and practitioners for improve Feng Shui and create a space where you feel safe and more energized to meet the demands of today's high-pressured world.

Since this kind of plant symbolizes good luck, nowadays, people believe not only it brings green color into your room, but also bring fortune and prosperity to any household, business or people you care. Many occassion you can use lucky bamboo, such as wedding favor, party favor, baby shower, birthday, promotion, graduation, holidays celerbration, and etc.

Lucky Bamboo has been treated and cultivated under natural growing conditions according to Feng Shui methodology, therefore, their energy (Chi or Qi) are more powerful and robust. So, it will not only bring luck and fortune but also can activate energy stagnated corner or location.

Taking care of Lucky bamboo is fairly easy and almost care free, all you have to do is to put it in clean water. Lucky bamboo is very resilient, it preferred indoor environment with full light or without light, but avoid direct sun.

Note 1: Yeap. I have been selling the lucky bamboos for 3 years. Each time, i have to design different styles to accomodate the different bamboo shapes.

Note 2: Yup. Im taking pictures of the bamboo arrangements and putting it to the album. Check it at the Friend's network album 3 days later.

Toukki.

Is this baboo arrangement w/ Feng Shui elements designed by you? Nice.

I've seen very big luxuriant lucky bamboo in bamboo-planting village in Zhanjiang, a port city of Canton. They are really powerful.

Do you arrange big-scale lucky bamboo?

Great! ohhh i got posted the artificial mudan imported from china. Its in my photo album. You can access it cookie lui.

Helo swallowtsui. Yup, i also have "kai yun zhu" from china. Some of the "zhuan yun zhu" i get it from taiwan. There are also local products from indonesia but they are not as healthy compared to the one from china and taiwan. Yes again. I arrange large scale of lucky bamboo BUT it takes a lot of my brain energy and effort to make one. Unfortunately, the market im selling isnt great. Perhaps in bigger cities or in USA, my creations can sell at least 3 times higher price than the one im hving now.

Mike great to hear you luv those bamboos. If you dont like seeing the bamboo soak in the water, you can always feel free to plant it to the soil. Once it grows longer leaves, you can trim them. Anytime, just cut it off and have them grow new one. Of course, if you bought the "twisted luck bamboo", you wont have the 2nd new grown bamboo twisted.

By the way, how much you buy the bamboo?

oh wao. mike. If its in malaysia, 38 sticks of the bamboo cost around Rm45 (pls divide 4.3) for the currency rate so u know whats the price.

Yup. Its the easiest thing to do. Sweetnsassygurl. You can always plant it into the soil. NO FERTILISER needed when u have it in the water.
