Hi Mason!
Lucky Bamboo is pretty flexible when it's young. However, as it gets older and the stem becomes more woody, it can become more difficult to bend without risking damage.
Here are a few tips:
* Choose the right time: Try bending the bamboo when the stem is slightly moist, as it's more flexible at this time.
* Be gentle: Bend the bamboo slowly and carefully, avoiding any sudden or forceful movements.
* Support the bend: Use a plant tie or a small stake to help hold the bamboo in its new position.
* Monitor for damage: Check the bamboo regularly for any signs of stress or damage, such as discoloration or wilting.
If you're unsure about bending your Lucky Bamboo, it's always best to err on the side of caution. You can try training it to grow in a certain direction by positioning the pot towards the desired direction of growth.
Let me know if you have any other questions!
