Lucky Bamboo Plants
have been a symbol of
"Good Fortune" in some
Asian cultures for approximately
4,000 years. In these
cultures the plant was
considered to be a member
of the Bambus or Bamboo
Family, but in 1936
scientists classified
it in Cameroon, West
Africa, as Dracaena
Sanderiana, a member
of the Dracaena Family.
In Chinese, it is called
"Fu Gwey Zhu". Fu means
Wealth, Rich; Gwey means
Power, Honor; Zhu is
Bamboo.

Lucky Bamboo Plants have
been found in both tropical and temperate
climates in Japan, China, Southeast Asia,
Africa, and South America. It's served many
uses throughout these regions. Lucky Bamboo
is one of the plants recommended by Feng
Shui masters to improve the flow of Ch'i
or life's positive energy in a room, house,
or building.
According to Feng Shui,
Lucky Bamboo plants were given to friends
and loved ones during times of celebrations.
A wedding, a birth, a house-warming, the
beginning of a new year, a new business
endeavor or just an expression of wishing
one good fortune were perfect times to give
gifts of Lucky Bamboo Canes.
