And the top half at work has new leaves on the established offshoots and all have new roots growing like crazy but for some reason I don't have a picture and I KNOW I took one.

My Lucky Bamboo
Finally after admiring my coworkers plant for a while now, I decided it was time I had one. So beginning of December I bought some shoots but they were 18 and 24" in length with the top four inches with growth. DUH I did not like this. The florist shop where I bought it advised I NOT shorten and try to prompt new shoots - leave it as is. Well that's just not sounding right. So I googled this plant and there it was in black and white how to propagate these shoots and also The Green Scene told me to either bring in my shoots and he'd cut them for me (they do it all the time) or proceeded to tell me how to do it myself. SO off I went and prayed all goes well. As you can see so far so good for the bottom shoots - the plant at home!!! The shortest one still need offshoots but there is one slightly more swollen joint - maybe!!!

The next time you look for that photo, it will be right there, like a cat...
I did not know that you could cut the bamboo, but I had assumed you could. I wonder why they told you not to...
