Lucky bamboo stalks?

Post by sweetflea » Tue, 15 May 2012 5:17 pm

Anyone know where I can pick up single stalks of lucky bamboo? I've always bought them at IKEA around the world so was surprised when I couldn't find them here!

They look like this:

Thanks a bunch! :)

I got mine in one of the flower shops ( nurseries) along Thomson Rd ( close to the McRitchie reservoir)

But it was Chinese New Year, I don't know if they have any the rest of the year.

I see those everywhere all the time. Just walk around some of the bigger markets at HDBs. Like Marine Parade Central, or AMK Hub, etc.

I'm pretty sure I've even seen them in the Cold Storage @PP.

I've seen them in Cold Storage and Giant at Parkway Parade but I'm sure you'll also find them in garden centres too.

See above. Try a large grocery store. I see them often in Cold Storage and Fairprice Finest.
