My Bamboo Plant

I don't have a green thumb but I do have my very own bamboo plant. This picture was taken with my new Canon 50D on August 5, 2009. Let me give you some background on this bamboo plant. This plant was given to me by a Korean couple on February 3, 2007. The Korean couple was in California to celebrate their son's wedding to my friend Stacey Yoon. It was an all Korean wedding. It was my third Korean wedding. I was the DJ for the wedding reception. The reception was held at the Richard Nixon Presidential Library & Birthplace in Yorba Linda, California. It is my understanding that it is good luck in asian cultures to have a bamboo plant. I could be wrong but it is something close to that. I have never had my own plant prior to this bamboo plant. I check this plant every day when I come home from work. Bamboo is pretty low maintenance. All I do is make sure it has enough water and light. When it gets thirsty I give it more water. I haven't had any conversations with this bamboo plant yet but I probably should because it seems really cool! Click on the picture for a larger version.
