Lucky Bamboo by FTD


Having just turned 30 AGAIN, I was super excited to have found a package on my front porch marked "Live Plant" and "Perishable".

Rushing to meet friends out for dinner that day, I tore through the box to find four items: a bag of small white stones, a ceramic planter, stalks of bright green bamboo, and a sweet birthday wish from my brother, his wife and children.  Apparently, the gift of living bamboo should bring good fortune to it's recipient!

I carefully poured the stones to fill the bottom of the planter.  Then the next steps were to put the stalks of bamboo in the planter and use remaining stones to fill in around the stalks.  The bamboo also required distilled or purified water to be added.

The plant care and handling tips pointed out that Lucky Bamboo required relatively low maintenance with water being changed once a week, room temperature set to moderate, and of course plenty of indirect sunlight.
