#Hello and welcome to the contest:

#This week's topic is a plant for luck:

My Zamioculca Zamiifolia, a lucky plant :

This plant belongs to the Araceaes family and its common name is money plant. Its origin is from the African continent.

What I do with this plant? is to sow and transplant its children and then proceed to give it all the necessary care to become an adult. Once it grows up to be a plant with the same characteristics of its mother plant I place it on a shelf that I have in my garage and I put it for sale.

Because people are generally superstitious and tend to believe that objects, plants or foods can exert some control in our life this plant is in high demand.

The Zamioculca plant develops from small bulbous rhizomes. It can also develop from the leaves of the mother plant, both the rhizome and the leaf of the plant are placed in fertile soil with suitable substrate and you have to wait a considerable time to observe its reproduction.

This plant has leaves with a very shiny underside. They are oval-shaped and thick, smooth to the touch. They grow on stems that arise from the rhizome of the plant and become an erect and rigid branch with leaves, each one next to the stem of each branch. The leaves and stem are colored in dark green.

They are plants that can eventually reach a meter in length. They should be removed from direct sun exposure as their leaves can burn under it.

Also, as it is a plant that accumulates liquid in its thick leaves and cylindrical stems is advisable to not add much moisture to the substrate in order to avoid rotting the roots and rhizomes.

Now tell me, what do you do with your lucky plant?
