Five Lucky Plants

Lucky Bamboo

Lucky Bamboo

Talk about a plant with a reputation! Lucky bamboo has been known across the globe as a symbol of peace, prosperity, and, of course, good luck. But not all bamboo is created equal as its power lies in the number of stalks. Three stalks will bring overall well-being, while five stalks will give you an energy boost in your finances. You may want to steer clear of four stalks—that combo is thought to bring bad luck. This sleek, low-maintenance plant is a fantastic way to add some zen to any space!

Money Tree

Money Tree

The Money Tree is another iconic plant known for attracting wealth and good fortune. Its stunning braided trunk and fresh, vibrant leaves represent balance in all things (think: earth, water, fire, wind, and metal). If you’re lucky enough to score a tree with seven leaves, you might hit the jackpot of prosperity! Money trees are easy to care for and make a striking addition to any home or office.

Snake Plant

The snake plant, with its stylish, tough, and sharp, upright leaves, is a favorite for bringing good fortune and health. It’s like a personal guardian for your space, known to shield against bad energy while boosting air quality. Even better, snake plants thrive on neglect—low light and minimal watering—making them perfect for busy lifestyles (or anyone without a green thumb).

Decorative houseplant Spathiphyllum wallisii. Commonly known as peace lily.

Peace Lily

Peace Lilies are ideal for bringing a calming, harmonious energy into your space. This plant is all about promoting balance and positivity with its soft white blooms. Whether displayed in your bedroom, living room, or anywhere you need a little extra tranquility, the peace lily quietly works its magic to keep your space fresh and peaceful.

Jade Plant

Jade Plant

The Jade Plant is connected to good luck and financial success. Its plump, round leaves are believed to symbolize prosperity and wealth in Feng Shui. It’s an ideal and fantastic addition to your workspace or as a gift to someone embarking on a new business adventure. Jade Plants are easy to care for, resilient, and classic to have around when you’re manifesting abundance.
