There’s something about bringing home a fresh bunch of flowers or a new plant that just feels right. They brighten up your space, add a pop of color, and can instantly lift your mood. (It’s like a mini happiness hack!) Some might say that’s good luck all on its own, but there’s more! The floral pros at Potomac Floral Design Studio are here to spill the tea on a variety of plants and flowers that have been known to bring luck, fortune, and prosperity for centuries.

Plants that Bring Good Luck

Lucky Bamboo

The name “lucky bamboo” says it all! This plant is celebrated in Chinese culture for bringing health, strength, fortune, and prosperity. With its elegant, artistic look, lucky bamboo is also believed to boost positive energy and create a sense of zen and tranquility in any space.

Money Tree

The Money Tree is another houseplant known for bringing vitality, luck, and wealth into your home. With its glossy green leaves and braided trunk, it’s both a symbol of good fortune and a beautiful decorative piece. Legend has it that the braided trunk captures and stores good luck within!

Jade Plant

If you’re familiar with Feng Shui, you’ve probably heard of the Jade plant. Its round, thick leaves are believed to symbolize success and prosperity, making it a popular good luck gift for new business owners.

Snake Plant

Snake plants are known for cleansing the air and removing negativity and toxins, helping create a fresh and uplifting environment. Their long, sword-like leaves are like guardians of your space—promoting a healthy, positive atmosphere wherever they’re placed! 

Flowers that Bring Good Luck

Hydrangea

Hydrangeas, often found in seaside cottage gardens and elegant floral arrangements, are lush, full blooms that come in stunning shades of pink, purple, blue, and white. They symbolize enlightenment, gratitude, and spirituality and are believed to bring great fortune and luck.

Peonies

With their fluffy, round blooms, peonies are becoming increasingly popular for their trendy, feminine charm. They’re linked to happiness, good health, and prosperity. However, peonies should be tended to with care, as it’s believed that dried or faded peonies may bring misfortune.

Chrysanthemums

A cherished autumn favorite, chrysanthemums light up fall décor and porches with vibrant yellow, orange, red, and pink hues. Beyond their beauty, they also carry a strong positive energy current, attracting plenty of good luck to those who display them.

Marigolds

With their sunshine-yellow and golden-orange petals, marigolds bring a quirky, cheerful vibe—almost like a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow! These lucky blooms are celebrated for their ability to ward off evil spirits and protect the home with their bright, positive energy.

Whether you’re sending a little luck to a friend or bringing it into your own home, Potomac Floral Design Studio is here to help you attract health and wealth with beautiful blooms. Even if you don’t believe in the powers of lucky flowers and plants, you can still enjoy the positivity and beauty they’ll bring into your life!
