The screw shape of the Lucky Chinese Bamboo is obtained by keeping it in darkness, exposing only one area to the light and turning the plant daily. It's not a true bamboo plant and grows in water. This one started out in a container that became too small. I learned, after accidentally breaking off a couple of pieces, that pieces can be rooted in water It has really become gawky but I haven't killed it yet.
I don't think it looks gawky? It's pretty cool looking!
