I finally figured out why my ZZ plant (Zamioculcas zamiifolia) was growing so slowly—I was watering it way too often. Once I switched to letting the soil dry out completely between waterings, it actually started pushing out new leaflets. I'm still learning the balance, but it's definitely happier now. Has anyone else struggled with overwatering theirs, or is it just me?
