# Does anyone have any examples of places they put lucky bamboo and it…

_Posted by Xavier Deaton on 2023-07-24_

Does anyone have any examples of places they put lucky bamboo and it did good. I have one and I put it not in my window but off to the side and I think it got too much sun because the leaves on the side facing the window went yellow so I was just wondering if anyone had any good picture examples of where to put them

I have a bamboo that got drug around last summer in the most awful plant locations. In a hot motorhome camping. and then stuck in the dark all winter with not the most regular watering.

Its still alive.

But when I put it in too much sun it struggles and droops

I keep mine on the window sill of my north facing window and it seems to be doing good!

Mine is about 4 feet from an east facing window so not in direct sun but room is bright in the morning. I’ve had it for about 6 months and it seems happy there so far.

Mines in the middle of my living room. To one window it’s about 8ft and to the other it’s about 12ft. Gets plenty of “daylight” just not close enough or direct. Seems to love it there 🤞🏼

I stuck mine in my aquarium and it’s still looking good!
