Hi! I came into my plant era on 6/10/24 when my coworker gifted me a Raven ZZ. Over the past year I’ve become obsessed with caring for these little beauties, so much so that I have a camera in my room so I can see them while I’m at work (ik, she’s crazy lol). I have the worst luck with Alocasia’s, especially the Silver Dragon \& Polly, these two are my recent purchases; I’m trying leca this time around for my Dragon (🤞🏼) any tips would be greatly appreciated! My Chinese Evergreen is my most favorite plant 🩷 she’s grown so much since I freed her from her 3 little cages that were surrounding her roots. As for the Polka Dot… she’s pink \& she’s perfect! These are my top 4, but I love all 34 of my plant babes and wanted to share with my new fav app! 🪴💚

Okay but the way you freed your Chinese Evergreen like she was a damsel in root distress—I felt that. You’ve got such a vibrant collection! Leca for the dragons sounds promising; just don’t forget their weekly water feast and a lil’ root check now and then. Rooting for you (literally)!

lol thanks so much for rooting for her!! 😄😄

Obsessed with your taste in ceramics 💖

They are all planted in clear plastic containers inside the planter pots. I learned some hard lessons when I planted directly in my planters (with no drainage holes 🤦🏻‍♀️)

They are gorgeous!! I have two more plant babies I want and one is the Chinese evergreen!!!then the rojo Congo philodendron.. I said I was stopping at 20 plants I’m now at 24😂🤦🏽‍♀️

#### Denisha ha respondido el 2025-05-03

I said I was stopping at 7, then 13.. now I’m at 34 lol it’s just so fulfilling tending to and watching them grow. I understand now how people find peace in gardening. The Congo is gorgeous by the way, I’ve never seen one in person but the photos are nice. 😊 I’m pretty sure my Evergreen is my fav because 1) she’s pink. 2) she’s not fussy and has been my only plant (so far) to really flourish.

So beautiful! I just got a zz plant. Any tips for care?

#### Denisha ha respondido el 2025-05-04

Super easy to care for, I told my brother they thrive on neglect lol you can water 3 \& 4 weeks apart, throw in some liquor fertilizer once a month and I’ve had mine in indirect light, grow light, and no light still grows!

#### Juanis ha respondido el 2025-05-05

Thanks!
