******* Bamboo?

Okay I have a water sucker for a bamboo plant. I've had this thing since christmas and it hasnt grown a centimeter! I'm starting to believe that its some Chinese terriost plot to sell us cute bamboo and have it drain our water supply so that they can sell us water!!! Is my bamboo plant just retarded? Does it resent being removed from the store in the mall? Does it dislike my taste in music?! Should i call the ******* FBI and let them know about the terrorists?!?! How do i make the god damn thing grow??!!?! Help would be appreciated. Btw i WATER it and its got all the sunlight it's little heart disires and it's a nice green color.

I believe you have what is called Lucky Bamboo, (some are curly some straight) which really doesn't grow it just sits in a glass of water no dirt and hopefully brings you luck! I believe it works best facing west. No need to call the FBI, it is just a decoration. Just make sure it always is sitting in water.
Reply:most bamboo plants have slow groth rates, i have two, one has grown 2 new leaves and the other has grown none i had both two months, adding a few drops of plant fertilizer to the water should help
Reply:I have several lucky bamboo, some grow very well, some don't grow at all. A couple have died on me. I just make sure they have water %26amp; add a drop of liquid food once a month or so %26amp; it seems to make them grow faster. Don't feed too much or too often, or the plants will burn %26amp; turn yellow.
