Though originally native to West Africa, Lucky Bamboo plants are famous for their associations with Eastern philosophy and the Chinese art of Feng Shui. A lucky bamboo plant symbolises the elements of water, wood and earth, and is thought to bring happiness and good fortune to any home or workplace.

About all I know about lucky bamboo is

1). It's not bamboo
2). It's probably not lucky....

Fun to grow, though. It's an inside plant for a shady windowsill, needs its roots wet at all times, needs minimal fertiliser, and can manage with a small pot. The different twisty patterns you can make it grow into bring different forms of luck. Apparently...
