Plant fact of the day: Zz plant :  
The zz plant,to my understanding, has a bulb that grows multiple stems that once fully grown will completely halt growth to the stem to grow another,bigger stem and so on so fourth.

I didn’t research very far into this fact so feel free to research how this really works

The Zz has rhizome which shoots out new stem usually at the soil line. In my experience my old Zz leaves continue to grow long and lush still while growing new shoots
