Lucky bamboo leaves stay green all year round. Keeping some lucky bamboo at home not only beautifies the environment, but its name also carries a particularly good meaning - abundant wealth and prosperity.The position where you keep lucky bamboo is quite important; only when it is placed in the right spot will it grow lush green, thriving and beautiful.

1. Lucky bamboo kept at home is best not placed in a dark place with no light. Whether it is hydroponic lucky bamboo or potted lucky bamboo, it needs to be placed somewhere with light, otherwise the leaves will not be able to carry out photosynthesis and will grow very slowly.

2. It also cannot be placed somewhere exposed to sunlight all day long, where the light is especially intense. This will cause the leaves to get sunburned, turn yellow, or even wither right down to the stalk.

3. Also, it cannot be placed next to heavy cooking fumes, a gas stove, a cooker, a heating pipe, or close to positions near televisions and electrical appliances. These will make the leaves turn yellow, lose their gloss, and stop growing lushly.

4. As for the best spot indoors to place lucky bamboo, some gardening enthusiasts put lucky bamboo at the diagonal corner directly opposite the living room, believing this position is very good and auspicious - in any case, it is also a kind of mental comfort.

5. So when we grow lucky bamboo, the best thing is actually to place it on a south-facing balcony, where there is bright light and where it is kept ventilated regularly.

6. During the spring and autumn growing period, for potted lucky bamboo, using just a small amount of nitrogen fertilizer each time is enough for it to grow very well. For hydroponic lucky bamboo, you can add a little nutrient solution or a liquid fertilizer high in nitrogen.

7. Normally, every so often, mix a little white vinegar with water and wipe the leaves; the leaves will be clean and free of dust.

8. Or mix beer with water and wipe the leaves; the leaves will become even more full of green vitality, glossy and shining.
