Lucky bamboo also thrives in the water
Can I keep my lucky bamboo in a vase?
The easy-care lucky bamboo is usually sold in a container with water and maybe a few stones, which ensure a straight stand. But it can also be planted well in hydroponics or soil, just as you like it.
Select the pase vase
The Lucky Bamboo looks especially decorative in a transparent glass vase with colorful stones. The vase itself should be so high that the lucky bamboo can not tip over. For stabilization, carefully insert pebbles or colored glass stones into the vase. Then pour in clean water. This may like to be a little stale, even clean rainwater is well suited. Add a little liquid fertilizer to the water as your lucky bamboo needs some nutrients.
Find the right location
It is often recommended a half-shady to shady location for the lucky bamboo, while he likes it bright. However, he tolerates no direct sunlight for many hours a day. Besides, he does not like a sudden change from shadow to light. Slowly get used to your lucky bamboo to a new location that likes to be bright and, above all, warm.
So you maintain your lucky bamboo in the vase
About once a week pour your lucky bamboo. Note beforehand that the water level drops, then you should water more often. The water should be as low in calcium as possible. Lime-rich tap water does not tolerate your lucky bamboo very well, but rainwater already.
Without fertilizer your Lucky Bamboo lives in the vase not very long, he starves to death, so to speak. Therefore, give him some liquid fertilizer together with the irrigation water every one to two weeks.
Make sure that the water in the water is always clean and fragrant. As soon as it smells unpleasant or looks dirty, it should be completely replaced. Rinse the stones thoroughly before putting them back into the vase.
