I’m editing my 5 star review without changing the stars (The plant and the Curious plant deserves more than your average 5 because there’s no emoji for surprised, toothy smile).
You’ll never have a more robust plant than this! I’ve had it for less than two weeks and now my one plant is MANY! In the second picture, the tray is almost a foot long. It is covered in new plantlets. Like everywhere. I’d divided it when I got it because it came in a bunch. But, most of the plants in that tray are entirely new! It’s covered. They’ll fill it like grass if I keep dropping gnats on them!

Arrived in good condition and on time! Been a week and still acclimating I think since no dew just yet but it looks like it is growing smaller plants below the older ones that aren’t dewing!
