Should I chop and prop my new ZZ?
Hey everyone!
I just picked up this ZZ plant and she has huge roots and seems to be pretty big for her current pot. She was by far the biggest at the store and her fat roots have even misshapen the plastic pot she’s been living in! Should I leave her, split her up, or something else?
All help and advice appreciated, #NewPlantMom here 😅 and any other general tips and tricks with ZZ plants would also be very much appreciated 💚🌱

Dayum she’s so full and pretty I would leave her alone 😝 just give her a slightly bigger pot (bulges are the perfect sign when to repot Zz) they have huge chunky roots! If you want two plants then I would split her up when you repot, it’s probably going to be much faster at growing than cuttings already having a good root system and all. Looking forward updates, she’s beautiful
@HoyaAddict thank you for this advice!! I am going to give her a week or 2 to let her settle into her new environment before I repot her in a slightly larger pot. Thanks again 😊
@alexschildren perfect! She will love you for the rest and the new home! 🌱❤️
