Description
The ZZ plant is hands down one of the easiest houseplants to grow because of its ability to thrive almost anywhere in the home or office. If you are looking for a low maintenance houseplant that can thrive in low light look no further. Its dark green, waxy leaves and unique texture also make this plant very attractive! ZZ plants truly allow you to have your cake and eat it too.
Plant Biography
The ZZ plant is native to Eastern Africa. It is a member of the aroid family and found in dry grassland and forest. It is considered to be an evergreen plant but has the unique ability to drop its leaves in times of drought to conserve water. It possesses a large potato-like rhizome that stores water until rainfall continues. In its natural environment it produces small bight yellow to bronze flowers between its foliage from summer to early autumn.
I was a little nervous to blindly purchase plants online but I was pleasantly surprised and pleased with my plant purchases and I will be back to get more! Both my plants are potted beautifully - way better than any local nursery in my area! Plants are so healthy and happy! I can't wait for my next purchase.
The plant came well protected and in good condition. The leaves were bit dusty and one of the stalks were droopy/dead but other than that it looks great and makes a great addition to my desk!
Plants were packaged well and arrived quickly. Beautiful plants.
The plant I received looked fuller and more beautiful than the one pictured!
This plant came shipped along with two others and was very well packaged! My ZZ plant was bigger than expected, almost busting out of its 6" nursery pot. After letting it acclimate to my home I have repotted it and it is doing very well!
