The Zamioculcas Zamiifolia, more commonly known as the “Zanzibar Gem” or “ZZ Plant”, is the perfect choice for beginners and the sometimes-forgetful plant owners. It is characterized by its thick, shiny, oval-shaped, lush green leaves that taper to a point giving it a feather-like appearance. Native to Eastern Africa, the ZZ Plant is a tough, drought and low-light tolerant plant that can survive for months without water and is able to handle long periods of neglect. Due to its hardy nature, water sparingly as it can easily be overwatered, and keep out of direct sunlight to avoid scorching their leaves. Add some green and liveliness into any space of your home or office with this nearly indestructible, yet stunning addition.
