A classic among virtually unkillable plants! The ZZ Plant draws its charm from its glossy, solid green leaves and upright habit. Under its fleshy petioles are hidden rhizomatous tubers resembling potatoes, at ground level. These are water reserves, called “caudexes.” Thanks to these reserves, it is able to survive periods of drought in its natural habitat. As a houseplant, it is recommended to let the soil dry completely between waterings. The leaves can reach 1 m in height! In addition, the ZZ Plant tolerates dark rooms very well. However, for optimal growth, it prefers a bright room.
Caution! Risk of toxicity if swallowed.
