Caring for the bamboo of happiness

Dracaena Sandera was eloquently called the bamboo of happiness. According to Feng Shui, sprouts, curling beautifully, will certainly bring success to the house. In addition, the plant symbolizes will and inflexibility, which makes it an excellent option for a gift or addition to a man’s bouquet.

Caring for the bamboo of happiness won't cause much trouble. The plant is unpretentious and can survive even in a simple glass filled with water. If you decide to plant it in a pot, you should place drainage at the bottom. Flower soil can be mixed with sand. Periodically, dracaena needs to be fed with a special fertilizer.

In summer, bamboo needs abundant watering, in the cold season - more moderate. It is better to choose distilled or filtered, settled water at room temperature. If this rule is not followed, the leaves may turn yellow. In the bright sun, dracaena feels uncomfortable. Place it in a place where the light is slightly diffused. The most comfortable temperature is from 18 to 35 °C. Spraying is not required, but do not forget to wipe off dust from the leaves.

Do not disturb the plant with too frequent transplants. It is quite enough to do this procedure annually, in the spring. Happiness bamboo is propagated by cuttings from the top, stem segments. They need to be rooted in moist soil or water.

If you properly care for the bamboo of happiness, it will soon grow into a whole tree about 70 centimeters tall, with a straight stem and long leaves. Beautiful curves can be created artificially. If you prefer a smooth stem, you will have to remove growing shoots.

A piece of the south and sun will certainly bring joy into your life, just believe in it!
