Working on proping some ZZ plants! So pretty! Way to go! 😍

What is the best soil for the ZZ plants? My daughter gave me one from her plant but it’s not growing! I know they take awhile to grow but this has been from last year before Christmas!

I use regular potting soil for mine! This started as one single shoot in January and now I have the three you see in the pictures and two more babies growing in the soil! They don’t always grow well if they were propagated in the winter though, so that may be the issue

Im thinking of repotting it into a smaller pot and see how that goes, I think the pot it’s in is too big for it! 🤞🏻 hopefully that helps it!
