Curly Bamboo

Curly bamboo is something which has not been around since time began but if you are looking for something new and modern then this with some Anthurium might be fro you. Legend has it that:-

Three stalks attract happiness
Five attract wealth
Seven result in good health
Ten offer a very powerful all-purpose blessing

These plants are: -

Tough
Resilient
Thrive in very low light, so they do very well in the home or office.

Although the plants can last for years in just plain water, adding a droplet of liquid fertilizer to the water periodically will provide nutrients to help the plant grow more vigorously (supposedly the longer the leaves, the more fortune that is bestowed to you, so fertilizer may really be beneficial!).

The plants grow very slowly, so you probably won't need to worry about dividing them.

However, it is a centuries old custom to break off a stalk for guests to take home. The new piece will quickly root in water.
