How do I Propagate Lucky Bamboo

Lucky Bamboo is well-known as one of the most popular and beautiful indoor plants. It looks nice when we give it a shape or just plant bamboo with a side brunch. Most of the time, we get a straight long bamboo when we buy it at a cheap price. 

But we all want it with a side brunch. Getting a brunch is easy when you propagate lucky bamboo. Many of you don’t know the appropriate way how to propagate lucky bamboo. Believe me, it’s one of the easiest tasks you can do.

Last year my husband brought 3 single lucky bamboo plants and they had no brunches. And last month, I found them getting a perfect height to propagate. 

So, I followed 3 easy steps and got amazing results to propagate lucky bamboo. So, now I am here to tell you about how I managed to propagate my luck bamboo.

Steps to Propagate Lucky Bamboo

As I said before, Lucky Bamboo is very easy to propagate. And you don’t need to do a lot for it. However, before I start explaining the method let me share with you the name of the tools you will need for it.

  • Sharp knife or anti-cutter
  • Glass jar
  • Pebbles

These things are almost available in our home. So, you don’t have to buy anything for it. Let’s check out the easy steps to propagate Lucky Bamboo.

Step 1

First, make sure your lucky bamboo is long enough to divide. Now, remove the leaves of the bamboo to the height from where you are planning to make a cut. But don’t remove the leaves of the upper part.

Step 2

Take your knife and cut the bamboo from the place you want. Make sure to cut from the place between two nodes. Because the higher nodes are places from where new branches will grow.

Step 3

Leave the mother plant in the bright light and don’t re-pot it for at least a couple of weeks. New brunches will appear within a few weeks. It’s now the turn for the cuttings. Place them in a clean glass jar full of clean filtered water and pebbles. Make sure to keep them straight. New roots will grow within a week.

That’s it for the mission to propagate lucky bamboo. Don’t forget to take proper care for lucky bamboo plants. 

You are going to get two new bamboo trees from each mother plant. The side branch will grow and you will cut it again for water propagation to get a new one. And the cuttings will become the mother plant as well.

Good Bye Words

Isn’t it very easy to propagate lucky bamboo? I have shared the raw images of my plants and am very much interested to see what your one is looking like. 

Oh, one more thing I need to mention. Don’t plant the cuttings in the soil until the root is at least 2 inches long. Otherwise, they can find it difficult to survive. You can also keep them in water as well as a form of bamboo plant care. Lucky Bamboo grows very nicely in water as well.

So, here we go for today. I will share more ideas from my real-life plantation regularly. Last day, I bought a Gardenia plant and will re-pot it after 2 days. Then, I’ll tell you how I do that too. 

So, just stay with us to get more effective information about indoor and outdoor plants. Thank you for your support.

Hello, I’m Khandaker Mursalin, a writer and researcher in the field of English Literature and blog writing. In 2014, I met my wife for the first time in my class. We found out that we two have a great passion for plants and gardening. Our hopes, aims, and interests were quite similar. So, we decided to marry. Finally, we married in 2015. Back then we were younger and had no money to make a huge garden as both were students.

But our passion for plants never decreased. We believed that making a garden at home requires your passion rather than money. So, we kept collecting plants by any means. And now, we have a huge balcony garden with more than a few hundred specifies. Most of them are indoor plants and good for balconies. So, we decided to help and encourage people to keep plants in their homes. And Gardenmysteries is a part of our work.
