Chinese Lucky plant

[sheann53]

I bought my wife a chinese bamboo lucky plant about 12 months ago.Over the past 4 months 4 of the bamboo stalks have turned from a healthy green colour to a pale yellow colour at the rate of 1 stalk a month.Their are 7 stalks left,Is their anything i can do to save them from dying?.

It seems as if it's luck has run out.

Why Are the Leaves Turning Yellow?

Two of the most common factors are 1.) too much direct sunlight; and 2.) too salty or heavily-flouridated tap water. Give your new Lucky Bamboo a thriving start be sure to keep it away from direct sunlight, and water only with filtered or natural spring water.

When my 'lucky' bamboo showed signs of dying I took it out of the water container and planted it into a pot, and it is doing really well. New growth is appearing now.
