Question
Help! My bosses lucky bamboo has started turning yellow; leaves, stalks, everything!  Too much water?  

Answer
Hi Elizabeth
Basically lucky bamboo has short life and after some time it starts to die but we can enhance its life by using appropriate water of pH around 7.0, less amount of minerals, by changing water regularly and keeping it in direct sunlight for some time.
All the best
