Good morning.  It looks like we have ice on everything.  Streets look slick.  County has been out sanding so those roads are starting to break up.  Temperature at 8:00 AM is at 22F( -5C).  It is going to warm up a little today, but we are having sunshine so that should help I hope with the melting.  But the temperature below freezing we will see.  Be safe, be careful and stay warm.

Australia family and friends are having very warm Feb 7th.  Temperature will be 90F(32C) with 93% humidity.  Stay cool, stay safe

I picked this Lucky Bamboo, and I am thinking of dividing it up and sharing it.  I need to research to see how to do it.  I did learn that this isn’t Bamboo but really a type of succulent.

How to Grow Lucky Bamboo
Lucky Bamboo's Many Meanings, Plus Care Tips  by Robin Sweetser
Lucky Bamboo (Dracaena sanderiana) is a houseplant—not real bamboo! It’s popular because of its ability to grow in low light in the home or office. Learn more about how to care for Lucky Bamboo for years of good health and fortune!
What Is Lucky Bamboo?
The plant we commonly call lucky bamboo isn’t a type of bamboo at all. Despite its appearance, lucky bamboo (D. sanderiana or braunii) is more closely related to succulents than to bamboo, which is a type of grass. Lucky bamboo is native to Africa but is now cultivated around the world as a good-luck houseplant.
Why is the Plant Called Lucky Bamboo?
In Chinese lore, lucky bamboo symbolizes good fortune, and feng shui practitioners use it to attract positive energy. The number of stalks have different meanings:
2 stalks symbolize love or double luck
3 stalks bring three kinds of luck: happiness, long life, and wealth
4 stalks are bad luck; they bring negative energy and are thought to be a death wish!
5 stalks balance the five areas of health: emotional, spiritual, mental, intuitive, and physical
6 stalks attract prosperity and wealth
7 stalks promote good health
8 stalks are good for success, growth, and fertility
9 stalks bring great luck
10 stalks bestow a complete and perfect life
21 stalks are for great wealth and enduring health
How to Start Growing Lucky Bamboo
Most people who grow lucky bamboo indoors have the plant in water. Here’s how:
Use a layer of pebbles to stabilize the stems of the plant and hold it in place.
Add enough water to keep the roots covered. (If it hasn’t grown roots yet, the plant will need at least 3 inches of water.) Learn more about watering houseplants.
Distilled or filtered water is best, especially if you have fluoride or chlorine in your tap water. These chemicals can cause the green tips of the leaves to burn and turn brown.
The container must have drainage holes; while you water frequently, do not let the plant sit in water or become waterlogged.
A clear container makes it easy to see the roots and check the water level, but it can also cause algae to grow, so you may want to use a colored container.
You’ll need to keep raising the water level as the plants grow to keep it above the roots.
Lucky Bamboo Care Tips
Lucky bamboo is a very easy-going plant that doesn’t require much attention. Follow these tips for success with your plant:
Change the water every 7 to 10 days, cleaning the pebbles and container as well.
Normally, lucky bamboo will grow fine without any fertilizer, but if you wish, you can give it a small drop of houseplant fertilizer monthly.
Since this plant grows in the shade of taller trees in nature, keep it out of direct sunlight. Bright, indirect light is best. If it starts to fade to a pale green, it needs more light.
Lucky bamboo likes warm temperatures, in the 65° to 90°F range.
Caution—this plant is toxic to cats!
If you wish, you can transplant lucky bamboo in the soil.
If the stalks get too tall, cut them off and start a new plant by rooting the stalks in water. Keep them in a shady area until new roots form, then plant them in soil or pebbles. Tie a gold or red ribbon around the stalks to hold them together and to symbolize good fortune.
Young stalks can be trained to curl by using wire to hold them or you can try blocking light on three sides of the plant causing it to grow toward the light. Keep turning as it grows to form the curve. This takes time but makes for a fun project. Pliable stalks can also be braided or twisted together.
Many times, Lucky Bamboo plants are given as an auspicious gift. We hope these tips give you years of good fortune growing Lucky Bamboo! Do you have a lucky bamboo plant?
