Bamboo plant for indoor..?

How much water are you supposed to put it in? I have it in a clear vase type bowl with rocks and the rest filled up with water. Is this the correct way to have it planted? This is how i've seen other peoples bamboo plants planted for indoors.

Hi, i have several bamboo plants in my home, yes you are doing it correctly. Make sure not to have them in direct sunlight and add water as necessary when it gets low. Do not wash the rocks! No rinsing is ever required unless you are washing the container they are in. They feed off of themselves, the stuff their roots deposit into the water and rocks. and every now and then a little dusting of the leaves wont hurt! =) enjoy!
Reply:You got it right. Keep it full at all times. The bamboo is called a ''Friendship Bamboo''. If yours is getting too high you can cut it off at 3" above the planter and replant the section you have just cutoff in the same container and it will grow also. I have started many of these.
Reply:I have mine in a bowl with washed river stone and I "Mist" mine till it's wet almost every day. There is no need to water the base unless it is in direct sunlight for extended periods of time exceeding a few days. Mine have grown from 3 1/2" to over 14+ inches in about 10 months....
