The verdict is still out as to whether or not I have a green thumb, but according to my Zanzibar Plant, I can do no wrong.  About 6 months ago, I cut two stems from my Zanzibar Plant, (because they looked sad and lopsided), and placed them in an olive oil jar I filled with water.  These two CUT stems, are still going strong!  Can you believe it? 

So, I have decided to dedicate this quick tip to the wonderful Zanzibar, AKA the immortal plant.  Here’s a pic of mine in my house:

You can buy this type of plant at Home Depot for fairly cheap.  I apologize - I can’t remember the price because it’s been so long … and Zanzibar is still alive!  She’s so good to me.

A cool trait about this plant is that sometimes it develops leopard-like spots on the stem. 

Here’s a better picture of my minimal arrangement.  It’s perfect for a guest bathroom or small table.  I put this in the master bath and it feels very spa-like.  It’s quite perfect for anyone who may be green-thumb-challenged.  Just remember - this plant likes shade.  I’ve never put it in full sunlight.  Cheers!
