Omg! I love it! What’s your trick? I feel like mine is just making small baby steps

Nothing special! Just a nice sunny window sill \& water when Planta tells me to. Occasionally I’ll prune older leaves to help encourage new growth.

Pretty and nice pot, too

So cute 🥰

Amazing growth! And adorable pots! 😍

I love that this app prompts us to take progress photos because I have so many plants that I get a little frustrated with when I feel like they’re not growing…. and then I scroll through those progress photos and am floored! This is beautiful.
