If your lucky bamboo plant is yellowing and its leaves are dying, there are a few things that you can try to revive it.
First, make sure that the plant is getting the right amount of light. Lucky bamboo plants prefer indirect or low light, so if it’s in a sunny windowsill or another area with bright, direct sunlight, it could be causing the yellowing and dying leaves. If possible, move the plant to a location where it will receive indirect or low light.
Next, check the soil for moisture. Lucky bamboo plants prefer consistently moist soil, so if the soil is dry or waterlogged, this could be causing the yellowing and dying leaves. Make sure to water the plant when the top inch of soil is dry to the touch, and make sure that the container has proper drainage so that the plant doesn’t sit in standing water.
It is also possible that the plant is suffering from a pest infestation, such as spider mites or mealybugs. Check the leaves and stems for small, discolored spots or a white, cottony substance, which are signs of these pests. If you do see evidence of pests, you can try treating the plant with a pesticide or insecticide specifically designed for use on houseplants. It is also a good idea to keep the plant away from other plants to prevent the pests from spreading.
If you’ve tried all of these suggestions and your lucky bamboo plant is still yellowing and its leaves are dying, it may be time to consider repotting the plant in fresh soil or fertilizing it with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer.
Lastly, if you’re unsure of what caused the yellowing, also take note of the plant’s environment such as temperature and humidity, they can also be the cause of the problem.
It is important to note that Lucky bamboo is not actually a bamboo, but a type of Dracaena and is native to West Africa. Therefore it has different requirements than the regular bamboo. With the proper care, your lucky bamboo plant should recover and continue to thrive.
