Bamboo House Plants Garden

how do i save my dying bamboo plant?

6 years ago

my bamboo stalks are shriveling up but only on 2 stalks. the third one seems to be fine. i have cut off the dying parts that were yellow in order to save what i have.i recently moved it because it was stuck in glued rocks before (from lowes) and at the bottom the two shriveling stalks do not have any roots at all. could that be the problem and is there anything i can do or are the two stalks done for?

Plant your lucky bamboo - a Dracaena and not an actual bamboo - in a pot filled with potting soil and start fertilizing it.
