Ming is all about texture—feathery, lightweight leaves that make it look more like a living sculpture than a houseplant. It grows tall on slender woody stems and tends to keep its shape without much effort. Despite its upright confidence, it has a surprisingly delicate root system that doesn’t appreciate rough handling or rushed repotting. Once settled, it brings a calm, architectural feel to any room.
