bamboo

["Adam Novitt" <adam at xhaos_org>]

There are some plants that are called "bamboo" but are not true bamboos.
Lucky Bamboo is very popular now and sends out shoots when a stem is placed
in water.  It is Dracaena sanderana, a member of the "corn plant" family
(very common as a house plant).  It does fine in water only.   Perhaps this
is what you have?

Yes, this is what I have.  I still like it, darn it, even if it isn't
bamboo.  The post would've looked pretty stupid though with the header as
"corn as an emergent plant" Thanks,
