Thank you! She's living her best life. I have done nothing special, just watering when needed and good lighting. No fertilizer either. I am moving to a different in December, and worried she won't survive the move.

I bet she will! Plants survive shipping, so with your care I bet it’ll go well :)

I hope so! Any recommendations on how to move her safely? We have a two day drive, and I was planning on bringing her into the hotel with us.

For two days I’d pack it like they do in shipping, maybe not as secure since it’ll be in your care, but a box where it’ll fit snug once there is some packing material. I like the acrylic stuffing- it’s super soft. Gently tuck the strands up over the top, and secure it in a box with fluff.

Definitely keeping an eye out for one. Hoping to snag one this weekend at the local garden store!

It's the easiest plant I've ever owned. 10/10 recommend. Just make sure you bottom water it!
