I see some new growth on my ZZ plant and I’m elated. I’m just worried if there is a mealy bugs infestation on the new growth. (Last two photos). Can someone tell me if I have to worry about it 🥺

Haha thanks. I just started giving it the least amount of attention that’s when it started thriving like this lol.

Oh interesting! That makes so much sense. Thank you!
