This plant is considered durable even with minimal care, but if it is not properly cared for, it can quickly deteriorate. Sometimes, the leaves may turn yellow, or the plant may wilt. Therefore, it is crucial to understand its basic needs.

Lucky bamboo prefers bright but indirect light. Direct sunlight can scorch its leaves and cause them to turn yellow. Dim, filtered light near a window is best, while a very dark location will slow its growth.

Water quality is crucial for this plant. Chlorine and fluoride in tap water can harm it. Therefore, use filtered or RO water, or use tap water that has been left running for 24 hours, and change the water every 7 to 10 days.

If you're growing lucky bamboo in soil, ensure the soil remains only slightly moist. Ensure the pot has drainage holes and water only when the soil feels dry. Overwatering can cause the roots to rot

This plant thrives in temperatures between 18 and 30 degrees Celsius, which is ideal for Indian homes. Avoid sudden temperature changes, such as placing it near an air conditioner or heater. It doesn't require much fertilizing; a light application of liquid fertilizer once or twice a month is sufficient

Regular care helps lucky bamboo stay green for a long time. Trim off yellow or damaged leaves periodically and keep the pot clean. Yellowing leaves may indicate excessive sunlight or poor watering, while brown tips are caused by dry air
