Lucky Bamboo (Dracaena sanderiana)

Despite its name, Lucky Bamboo is not a true bamboo. It belongs to the Dracaena genus and is cherished for its slender, upright stalks and spiraled or straight growth. It’s often used in feng shui for bringing positive energy and is a popular low-maintenance indoor plant. Lucky Bamboo can be grown in water or soil.
