The ZZ plant (Zamioculcas zamiifolia) is a dream come true for those who struggle to keep plants alive.
Ekta Chaudhary

The ZZ plant (Zamioculcas zamiifolia) is a dream come true for those who struggle to keep plants alive. Hardy, low-maintenance, and nearly indestructible, it thrives with minimal care, making it perfect for beginners and busy plant owners.

Suitable conditions for good growth

Sunlight: Low to medium light; avoid direct sunlight to prevent leaf damage.

Water: Water sparingly, letting the soil dry out completely between watering. Overwatering is the only real way to harm it.
