Toxic to pets!!! Keep it moderately moist and in a mildly bright area and it’ll be happy

I love this plant!! It’s super low maintenance and doesn’t need a ton of light, I have mine in a corner between a west and a north facing window and it’s doing just fine. Also the leaves are really pretty! Just keep it away from pets and kids

I noticed if I let the soil completely dry and then water it, the leaves brown or turn yellow. They need a more frequent watering routine

Super easy to take care of and such a pretty plant! Can be dramatic at times when not watered on a schedule and can look droopy but won’t be dead!

This plant has been the bane of my existence. I bought it for it's interesting leaves and variegation. It either is over or under watered constantly no matter what I do and I can't get it to stop getting mold/fungus or gnats. It also has indiscernible sunlight needs. I have done everything I can and it's still dying. Within 2 weeks it has dropped all but one of it's leaves. I will not buy another one.

This bb is so easy to take care of. Very low maintenance. It can handle low light and periods without water. It will continue to put out new luscious leaves even when it is in these unfavorable conditions. Great beginner plant!

I seriously cannot kill this plant! I stuck it under a north window 18 months ago and it has survived and thrived more than any of my other plants! I went through a Covid slump and didn’t water any of my plants for over a month and this bad boy didn’t get a single droopy or brown leaf. It’s constantly pushing out 2-3 new leaves during growing season and is even harder to kill than pothos. This plant never gives up on ya! 10/10

Apparently very sensitive to minerals in some tap water so it may not be as easy as they all say (coming from a plant vet. with 20+ other varieties)
