Can Lucky Bamboo grow in water?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e= Yes. Lucky Bamboo grows well with its roots in water instead of soil. Keep the roots covered, refresh the water every 1–2 weeks, and use distilled or rain water when possible, since fluoride and chlorine in tap water can yellow the leaves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ. Can I put Lucky Bamboo in my aquarium?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e= Yes, as long as only the roots and the base of the stems sit in the water. It makes an easy riparium or paludarium plant on the tank rim or in a hang-on-back filter, and our Aquarium Plant Holder with Hooks holds it securely on the tank wall. Keep the leaves above the waterline, since it isn't a true aquatic plant and won't thrive fully submerged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ. Is Lucky Bamboo safe for cats and dogs?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e= No. Lucky Bamboo contains saponins and is toxic to cats and dogs if eaten, typically causing vomiting and drooling. Cats may also show dilated pupils. Place it where pets can't chew on it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ. Is Lucky Bamboo a real bamboo?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e= No. Despite the name and its bamboo-like stems, Lucky Bamboo is a Dracaena in the asparagus family (Asparagaceae), native to tropical Africa. True bamboos are grasses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ. Why are my Lucky Bamboo leaves turning yellow?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e= The most common causes are fluoride or chlorine in tap water, overwatering in soil, too much direct sun, and too much fertilizer. Switch to distilled or rainwater, let the soil surface dry slightly between waterings, move it out of direct sun, and feed only lightly. It's also worth checking leaf undersides for pests such as whiteflies.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Canton Aquatics","offers":[{"title":"Bare Root","offer_id":46039072079941,"sku":"SanderianaVariegatedBareSM","price":7.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Potted","offer_id":46039072112709,"sku":"SanderianaVariegatedPOT","price":9.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0569\/7552\/3909\/files\/d9bdf42d-c0dd-5aec-9e2a-ffbfe36950e9.jpg?v=1792493752","url":"https:\/\/plantedpro.com\/products\/variegated-lucky-bamboo-dracaena-sanderiana","provider":"PlantedPro","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
