Lotus Bamboo Plant

Lotus bamboo Plant is also known as rose bamboo or flower bamboo. It is so named because its leaf bracts resemble lotus flowers. It is Dracaena deremensis, syn. Dracaena compacta. Lotus bamboo retains an erect form, and in maturity forms a cluster of sculpturally imposing leaf-covered columns. The plant’s common name suggests associations with the symbolism of bamboo and lotus, in which bamboo stands for longevity and vitality, while lotus symbolizes purity and good fortune.
