Zamioculas Zamiifolia

The ZZ plant is an easy to grow and care for indoor plant that displays small glossy leaves on stems which can grow up to 3 ft. long indoors. The ZZ plant grows well in low or bright lighting conditions and with frequent or much less frequent amounts of water.

Bright light is good, but not essential. The ZZ plant grows fine with low levels of light, but it’s best to avoid direct sunlight.

Allow the soil to become dry at the top to the touch between watering and don’t over water. It’s best to water this plant less than too much because over watering can cause stem and
rhizome rot.

the plant is active growing.
