    @atooleyproductions You are not listening. She was talking about the regular bamboo. She said that this IS NOT like the regular bamboo that grows well? outside. You may want to pay attention before starting to? insult people for absolutely no reason . . . .

    hey people!!!….plant pelargoniums….you’ll have no? problems!!!!!…..hot, cold, frost, snow, inside, outside, desert (well, probably not lol!)….just get out there and try gardening!!!!!…..my best to all!!!!

    That plant is not comng back and I saw that plant in a blue vase in other videos of hers .. it died. Again.. put the plant in fresh spring water .. change it weekly at the least.. and let the roots grow.. then put it in soil. Also if you cut the yellow part of the stalk down seal it with wax so that the stalk doesn’t rot. Your Lucky Bamboo will most likely die after 3 or 4 years of only having it in water u have? to eventually plant it in soil, place in indirect sunlight in warm area.

    BAMBAU?

  13. atooleyproductions says:

    @WingedSamurai But they die faster in water. It will only live for about 2-3 years in water, while in soil the plant can thrive for? decades.
