Pat,
It should be ok to use the glass beads from Walmart. However I would wash them first.
Hi. We have beens selling lucky bamboo in Australia for a few years now, and have found that the some glass pebbles can harm the plants. Washing them is excellent, but we have found that putting a drop (and I mean One Drop) of Dettol into the water when refilling this will kill any bacteria that may grow in between the pebbles.
