Appreciation post for my 2nd oldest plant in my care. She’s a little over 3 years old and is a great grandmother at this point with kids all over the country. Crazy glow up from the second ever progress update I took, to one this morning.

Gorgeous!!! Do you do any fertilizer or pruning? I would love for my philo to look like this someday

I fertilized every other water with an indoor plant pump fertilizer for like a year and then kinda fell off
