    This is definitely not something specific to women at all. Men also love to neglect plants.

      I think it’s more of a satire of a news headline starting with Man/Woman than specifically targeting women.

    Keep them humid, give them fast-draining soil, and give them filtered light. You’ll want to fertilize the soil periodically. If you’re still struggling check the pH - I think these typically like acidic soil.

      Or buy a Epipremnum aureum – the houseplant that will laugh at your attempts to kill it.

      The plant has a number of common names including golden pothos, Ceylon creeper,hunter’s robe, ivy arum, silver vine, Solomon Islands ivy, and taro vine. It is also called devil’s vine or devil’s ivy because it is almost impossible to kill and it stays green even when kept in the dark.

    Terrariums with small grow lights are a cheat code for these plants. If you keep it mega humid in there and let the water drain away from the roots so they don’t rot, they go absolutely ham.
