Curious to see what everyone else shares 🙂  
What are plants in your collection that seem to be thriving even though it is notoriously known as a difficult plant or you know you’re not giving the best conditions to?

Pictured from a week ago is my Calathea Fasciata. I’ve had it for almost 8 months now and got it on a whim at Home Depot knowing a thing at all about it. Have it about 6 feet from a slightly obstructed south window, miracle gro potting soil (with only perlite and drain hole for drainage) and a pot that might be touch large but it has been thriving! It continues to push leaves. Already on its 7 or 8th this season!

I only have the opposite, plants that are “easy” but I always kill 😂

haha now that’s a different story 😅 one that was surprisingly difficult up until a few weeks ago was my regular syngonium white butterfly. did not want to out out leaves! i’d also add spider plant to the list too

I have two! I was so hesitant to get a fiddle but she’s been thriving

And the second one is my Rattlesnake Calatheas. This was my second or third plant. I didn’t know anything how difficult Calatheas were known to be. But she never gave me any problems and is 3 years old now

both are beautiful plants! awgh! so tempted to get a FLF now. Was definitely fearful to get one before but beginning to think otherwise

I have a Stromanthe Triostar that was difficult until I put her under a grow light. She hasn’t given me any problems since!

Lovely! Always so satisfying when you figure it out with a plant :)
