📌 Note: The shape, length, and orientation of the leaves can naturally vary from one plant to another. New leaves may look slightly different from mature ones. Because they are rigid, the leaves may have small scratches, scars, dry tips, or minor cosmetic imperfections resulting from growth, handling, or transport. These issues do not normally affect the plant's viability.
