Lucky Bamboo History
For over 4,000 years, lucky bamboo has been considered a symbol of good fortune in Asian cultures. Its natural ability to thrive in a variety of conditions and to adapt to its surroundings is now making this elegant plant a favorite in homes and businesses.
The ancient Chinese practice of Feng Shui, which believes that the balanced of elements will bring harmony to our living environments, values Lucky Bamboo as a perfect element of wood, with its tall, vertical shape and slender leaves. Because Lucky Bamboo has the ability to thrive in most areas of the home or office, where other plants cannot, they are often used to balance the positive flow of energy or “chi” in these areas.
