Lucky Bamboo

I made this today.

Lucky Bamboo with 6 Stalks


I love Lucky Bamboo. We've had bamboo in the house for years now and I just love to arrange it.

Specific numbers of lucky bamboo stalks in a pot are supposed to bring luck to certain areas of your life.

  • 1 stalk: Simplicity and a meaningful life.
  • 2 stalks: Double luck, happy relationships
  • 3 stalks: Good for prosperity and fertility. If used with curly (money) stalk in the middle, it means wealth.
  • 4 stalks: Academic achievement, creativity, writing, romance
  • 5 stalks: Happiness, good and balanced luck in all aspects of life.
  • 6 stalks: Easy money, wealth, good flow of luck. Six in the Chinese language also sounds like the word luck.
  • 7 stalks: Good luck and prosperity in relationships.
  • 8 stalks: Good luck and fertility.
  • 9 stalks: Good health, prosperity, and love life.
  • 10 stalks: Completeness and fulfillment in life.
  • 11 stalks: Good all-around luck.

The one above has 6 stalks. I don't really build them based on the stalk number meaning - just what looks nice.
