Lucky Bamboo (Dracaena) in Water: Care Limits

Water Culture Is Temporary

Dracaena 'Lucky Bamboo' grows in water for aesthetics, not biology. It will eventually yellow and decline because soil is its natural medium.

Water Maintenance

• Change water weekly (use bottled or dechlorinated tap).
• Add 1 tsp diluted Miracle-Gro every 2 weeks.
• Keep in bright, indirect light.

Transition to Soil

When leaves yellow, pot in well-draining mix. The plant will recover vigorously. This is the sustainable long-term method.
