ZZ Plant

Zamioculcas zamiifolia (ZZ Plant)

Renowned for its resilience, the ZZ Plant is a favorite among those with a hectic lifestyle. Originating from East Africa, this plant boasts glossy, dark green leaves that sprout robustly from its thick, rhizomatous stems. It's not just its striking appearance that makes it popular; the ZZ Plant thrives under neglect, tolerating low light and infrequent watering.

Light: Thrives in low to bright, indirect sunlight.
Size: Typically stands about 14 inches tall in a 6-inch pot.

Fun Fact: The ZZ Plant is as tough as they come. Its ability to store water in its roots allows it to withstand periods of drought.

Care Tip: Be cautious with watering. Its roots are prone to rot if left in standing water. Yellowing leaves can indicate overwatering, so allow the soil to dry out between waterings.
