Mother-in-law are very low maintenance and scarcely like water they also prefers cool places which make them grow longer leaves
Too much water turns them yellow. Feed with an indoor plant food, 1x/month. They only require filtered light. No direct sun.
I can’t seem to keep them alive either.
I keep mine in a low light area and seldom water it. It's too big to move now.
And they do better (best!) If pot bound. They thrive in dark corners. Don't break their little tippy tops off. Lorda mercy, I miss mine.😢
I water mine once a month. I have it in a low light area. It grows slowly - but has grown.
