Buying a Zamioculcas is the best choice if you are looking for a hardy plant that always looks good. The ZZ plant has glossy, dark green leaves, can tolerate low light, and only needs water once every few weeks. Perfect for beginners, offices, and rooms with less daylight.
The Zamioculcas zamiifolia, commonly known as the ZZ plant, comes from East Africa and is one of the hardiest houseplants there is. It stores water in its thick rhizomes, allowing it to go for long periods without watering.
The glossy, upright leaves give the ZZ plant a sleek, modern look. It looks great in minimalist interiors and offices.
Choose a small ZZ plant for your desk or a large specimen for the floor. Also check out the sizes in medium-sized plants.
The ZZ plant grows fastest in a bright spot, but also does well in the shade. Bright afternoon sun can scorch the leaves.
Only water when the soil is completely dry: once every two to three weeks. Yellow, soft stems indicate too much water.
The ZZ plant is a top choice among shade-loving plants, easy houseplants and office plants. Pair it with a snake plant.
Yes, the Zamioculcas is slightly toxic to humans and pets if ingested.
Once every two to three weeks in summer and once a month in winter. Allow the soil to dry out completely in between.
It can tolerate very little light, but if there is no daylight at all, it will need a grow light.
