ZZ Plant: The Glossy, Go-Anywhere Green Machine

Category: Easy Green Friends

Meet the ZZ Plant: sleek, shiny, and totally unbothered. With its thick, waxy leaves and ultra-low maintenance vibes, this plant practically thrives on neglect. It's the perfect addition to your desk, bedroom, or that weird low-light corner that nothing else likes.

Why You’ll Love It

• Low light tolerant and super drought-resistant

• Glossy green leaves = always photo-ready

• Grows slow and steady—no wild surprises

• Pet-safe vibes? Not quite—but still one of the most beginner-proof houseplants around

Care Tips

Light: Low light to bright indirect light. It’s not picky—just keep it out of direct sun.
Water: Once every 2–3 weeks. Let the soil dry out completely between waterings.
Humidity: Happy in standard indoor humidity.
Soil: Needs fast drainage—our Signature Grow Mix is perfect for avoiding soggy roots.

Propagation Magic

Divide at the rhizomes (those potato-like chunks below the soil) or take a leaf cutting. Either way, Root Boost helps encourage faster, stronger root development.

Root Tip

If the leaves are yellowing, it’s probably getting too much water. Less is more with this one—trust us.

The perfect plant for “set it and forget it.”
