Does this look like a lucky bamboo to you?  
This is my bosses plant so I have no idea what it looked like when she first got it, I’m stumped

It looks like dumb cane to me. Yes it is a plant. I have one lol

### Catherine kommenterade den 2025-04-21

It has lost all its leaves obviously. They are pretty hardy. Keep it watered

#### jas svarade den 2025-04-21

should she cut it back?

#### Catherine svarade den 2025-04-22

You can cut it back if it is dumb cane. The piece you cut off can be put in water and it will reroot to start another plant. The top part where you cut could even grow a leaf. It is very resilient

It could be any number of plants without seeing the leaves it's hard to tell. It definitely resembles a lucky bamboo. I don't think it resembles a dumb cane because the stem is too small. At least to me it's too small. I think all you can do is wait for it to sprout a leaf. I hope that pot has drainage.

it has a LITTLE new growth, I have yet to see it looking like anything but this 😭

Looks like something slithering out of the basket when a snake charmer started playing his flute!
