I have a ZZ plant and it is sprouting new leaves. Not sure if that is normal this time of year. Any plant people?

Nice. What kind of light is it getting? We're having very mixed luck with our plants we brought in for the winter (many types for the first time in our experience). Some are doing really well, and others already went kaput.

I put it on my kitchen table which is the place in my apartment that gets consistent light. As far as watering it I follow the rule of benign neglect. Lol
I read that ZZ plants need water every few weeks in the winter.

Our real stars that just look perfect are our succulents, but there is also one of those viney looking plants that drapes over with leaves shaped a lot like yours in the pic, but not as waxy.

I had my snake plant bloom a couple months ago. A most glorious aroma.

I’d just look it up and see what the experts say. You must be doing a good job for the plant to be thriving like that. Here is my snake plant in bloom. :)

Nice! I am jealous . Are they easy to care for?
Super easy! I have a sunroom I have most of my plants in. Look up Snake Plant or Mother-in-Law tongue. The blooms are so aromatic. I can not describe the aroma but it was just wonderful.

I read that it is rate to bloom indoors. You must have a green thumb.

Nice. I usually get mine from wherever. But I will definitely check out that site. I’m interested in getting a Norfolk Pine to grow indoors.
