Does lucky bamboo actually brings good luck ?                                                                        

According to Chinese culture Fengshui Bamboo stalks can be directly effecting your fate and bring good omen . According to Chinese culture Fengshui number of stalks grown of Lucky Bamboo plant have their own significance and there quantity individually  symbolizes the   positivity and prosperity in our life. 

Although this plant is not directly related to bringing  good fortune in life the placement of plant according to Fengshui and Vaastu shastra has mentioned its significance in bringing positive energy and happiness in home when placed  in the south east direction of House. 

My personal experience of Growing Lucky Bamboo 

I had planted set of six stalks of Lucky bamboo about five years back in a small jar which was kept in a living room with indirect sunlight . It grew within a year with offshoots growing on three of the stalks which I trimmed and used for propagation. While what positive effect it brought into my life is still unascertainable it is definitely a great indoor plant that can be grown to add greenery  to your room .

  1. It's so interesting to learn that Lucky Bamboo isn't actually bamboo at all but a type of Dracaeana. I totally thought it was the real thing. I love your point that even if the good luck is unascertainable, it's definitely a fantastic, easy-to-grow plant that adds such great positive energy and greenery to a room. www.melodyjacob.com
