Do not be afraid to touch it and take good care of it. Ultimately, bamboo is considered lucky because of its vitality, flexibility and strong growth.

A little indoor feng shui bamboo plant is considered lucky when it combines/represents all five elements of feng shui, which are:
- WOOD - the Bamboo itself
- EARTH - the Rocks the plant grows in
- WATER - the Water the plant grows with
- FIRE - most pots usually have a red ribbon tied to them
- METAL - the glass pots belong to the metal element. If Bamboo is planted in a pot other than glass (i.e. clay or ceramics) it will usually have either a metal coin, or a metal figurine with it.
