Didn’t maintain it for the past year at least. I’m assuming the right one is a goner

I was gifted these three. They are lucky bamboo cuttings. Will they still develop a stalk at some point. I just planted them in the containers today. Any advice would be appreciated as well. I have never had lucky bamboo before.

my lucky bamboo plant has been growing these greenish roots recently and I don’t know if it’s something I should be concerned about. Please let me know if I need to do anything!

I took my lucky bamboo out the ceramic pot it was in and was surprised by the gorgeous roots. However, I'm not sure if it's time for a larger vase or not. Also, I'm not sure if the stems look healthy. Please help, I really don't want to unalive this little cutie pie. 🙏🏽

Is it sick or something? Idk what happened but the new growth is not green but yellow. Please help

I’ve had this lucky bamboo for the last 7 years. It’s very sentimental.

Noticed these spots after returning home from a trip. I know the planter is too small, I’d like to repot it.

For the last 7 years it’s been in this pot with potting soil, and then a few layers of stones. I haven’t added any pesticides or supplements. It’s now outgrown the pot and is much taller than when I got it.

What would you recommend I do? What size pot is best, and should I use potting soil and stones again? This plant stays indoors and has been doing very well with only regular watering until now.

Thank you for any assistance. Really hope I can save this plant and keep my friend’s memory alive for years to come.

Edit: the yellow color is more pronounced in photos, in real life it looks green with some discoloration and brown spots.

I have this huge lucky bamboo which i bought a month before. The leaves were droopy when I bought it but now I can see 2 yellow leaves as well. I change the water every week and I trimmed down the leaves. But what to make the leaves happy and how to care for it?? Should I move it to soil as it is in water and bought it like this? It is near the window but does not have direct light.

I want to save my lucky bamboo, I've had it for years at this point, I recently wanted to repot it because it felt really cramped in its last pot. I also heard it would be better off in soil so I put it in soil as well. It got horrible and started to die very quickly so I moved it back to water and pebbles. It looks slightly better now than it did but I have concerns and don't know what to do

• The plant is very droopy.
• Some leaves are splotchy, reddish purple, or yellow or browning.

Also I have the taped chopsticks keeping the plant up straight because otherwise it just falls over.

I love this plant and when I look online I cant seem to find anyone having the same issues so I dont know where to begin, I dont want to repot it again because I feel like im killing it by doing that.

hello first post here! me and my bf have had this lucky bamboo for almost 4ish years i think! roots are all bunched up but from the start of the root ball to the top leaf she’s around 29in! we recently repotted, since we’ve been noticing fresh leaves and thought it would encourage more growth. we keep the water above the roots at all times and on a shelf where it receives indirect sunlight, but lots, our apartment has lots of windows and i enjoy natural lighting 🙌 is there anything else we can do to make sure she stays healthy? also the stalks are starting to lean bc of the height so i wanted to also prevent any breakage an just overall droopiness
