hi again,
i just purchased a baboo tree,
never had one of these before so i have a couple of questions,..
.. for anybody who has experience with this type of plant,
it was in a pretty small container and i repotted ,
was wondering if these will be big enough container for it,
and also just how much light do these plants need?
thanks :)

I don't think that's bamboo. Maybe a money tree.

A money tree indeed. They like to get a lot of water, but let the soil dry out a little before watering again or the roots might rot. The tree stores water in its trunk so it wont dry out so easily.

As for light, bright shade seems to be the best. In full sun the leaves of my tree started to turn brown and wither away.
