Introducing Zion!
He's spiritual, not religious, but loves the idea behind the name.
Now, I have to live up to it by creating the perfect space for him!
I work at Walmart and we have Costa plants in our indoor garden center, and I'd walk past, ogling at them so many times a day.
Since I'm alone in my apartment now, I needed to add some life, and I needed to get one of these guys out of the 90+ degree weather here in middle America.

I don't know about the pot, I feel it's about time for a bigger pot, but I like the self-watering feature. I fear I might drown the Raven ZZ.
12ft to light, indirect
8” pot with drainage

@GoldAgboy10 Just a. bit about ZZ plants. They are extremely drought tolerant and it’s best to water them less rather than more often! Raven ZZ plants are drought-tolerant and prefer to have their soil dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering is a common issue that can lead to root rot, so it's best to err on the side of underwatering. Allow the top inch or two of soil to dry out before watering again. It is always best to check the soil for moisture before each watering. Hope this helps, Happy Growing!!

They are known to be impossible to kill, so you can water every two inches, or you can water after it drys out completely! Whatever floats your boat! Enjoy your new plant friend!
