Lucky Bamboo

A friend who plays croquet and his wife from Gisborne were staying with me just after I arrived back in NZ and, when they departed, they gave me a Lucky Bamboo.  I assume that they are trained to go round in circles because some are straight.  If so that must have taken a lot of time and effort.  Whatever it is a fascinating and pleasing addition to The Study.  Fraser just looked at it and said "Awesome.  That's really cool."  So I guess it must be good.  Apparently they have been known for centuries under the laws of Feng Shui as a symbol of good luck and is said to enhance positive energy.

  1. I've looked at these before, they are quite beautiful and fascinating.

  2. I can feel it's positive energy, just in glancing at the photo. Green, pure green of nature, always boosts my spirit. It tends to freshen a gloomy attitude :)

  3. Lucky You! ;)

    It's generally good to have green plants indoors... They act as air filters, producing oxygen while absorbing other less healthy stuff. To me a room without any plants always seems to be lacking something.

  5. Seems to me you have heaps of positive energy but a good omen can't do any harm. It's a beautiful, vibrant plant.

  6. Hi GB, Yes, supposedly very good feng shui so I am sure will add benefit to your surroundings. I keep on meaning to buy a couple for the office and home so I guess this will perhaps give me impetus to do so. Must look it all up in my books, I find it a fascinating subject although not always easy to put into practice.
