My ZZ plant is finally putting out a new frond after months of nothing, and I'm realizing I've been overwatering it all along. Turns out that glossy, drought-tolerant reputation isn't just marketing—I've backed off to watering maybe once every three weeks and it's thriving. Anyone else guilty of killing these things with kindness, or is it just me?
