The small bamboo plants are the ones I’m thinking of. They are usually formed into loose coils or some other exotic style, and sit on a desk. Or window sill. They are popular here, as people say they bring “money luck.”

Not being a gambler, I wouldn’t know, but I do like the way they look.

Got you.

Lucky bamboo (Dracaena sanderiana)Technically a dracaena species, lucky bamboo is the perennial office plant. Untold pots of these thrive in awful conditions, sporadically watered with bad lighting and poor air quality. Nevertheless, lucky bamboo lives on. These make wonderful gift plants, and many people believe they bring good luck and enhance the chi, or energy, of their surroundings.

The twisty bamboo plants are called “lucky bamboo” and are sold in pots as houseplants. Asuncion has some ... also an ivy vine that’s trained along the top of the wall all the way around their living room and kitchen. (Not that fond of ivy, myself ...)

The power company sent me a nagging letter with the information I needed to get on their website and pay the bill. Charged me a $5 late fee.
