It's beautiful, it took me a few tries to get mine looking better, turned out it didn't need nearly as much light as I thought.💚

Thanks so much Tina. I failed with my first one and now that this one is in lower light it is doing better also. I just realized this after your comment. 😄 🤦‍♀️ @tinaaune

Thanks Katy. I was lucky enough to get this in my local grocery store and I think back then it was 12.99. Everything has gone up in price now it seems. My local greenhouse has all their tropicals on sale. I got my really big silver bay aglaonema for 13.99. 😄

I have not been there in ages. My daughter always picks me up what I need there. I was in Rona yesterday and peeked at their plants. I was horrified as most of the smaller plants were beyond hope. They never water them and they die. It makes me so sad. 🤷‍♀️ @kaigia
