The ZZ plant (Zamioculcas), is a low-maintenance houseplant characterized by its shiny, wide, oval-shaped leaves that shoot upward. The spotless leaves are waxy and so deep green that sometimes the plant is mistaken as artificial. It's a slow-growing plant, so you won't need to repot often.
ZZ plants are notorious for being low-maintenance, easy-to-care-for houseplants that even gardeners with the blackest of thumbs can keep alive with minimum care. All they need to thrive is adequate light and a good watering every couple of weeks. ZZ plants have naturally shiny leaves that can begin to look dull over time as dust accumulates. Never clean the leaves of a ZZ plant with a commercial leaf shine as it will clog the pores of the plant. Instead, gently wipe away dust and debris with a damp washcloth to restore its shine.
ZZ plants are tolerant of a wide range of lighting conditions, which makes them well-suited to indoor growing. While ZZ plants can survive without any natural light, they do best in bright, indirect light. The plant can quickly become leggy when not given enough light, however. Avoid direct sunlight as this can scorch the leaves of a ZZ plant. ZZ plants are not overly picky about their potting medium as long as it is well-draining.
