Say Hello to the Low-Key Legend: The ZZ Plant 🪴💚
A.K.A. Zamioculcas zamiifolia (but who really says that?)
With its sleek, waxy leaves and upright vibe, the ZZ plant is basically the strong, silent type of the plant world — stylish, mysterious, and totally chill. Native to Eastern Africa, it’s built to survive heat, drought, and even that one time you went on vacation and forgot you owned plants.
Why You’ll Love It: It thrives on neglect, looks like a designer piece, and asks for basically nothing. The ZZ is your ultimate low-maintenance BFF.
Care Tips (aka how not to kill this unkillable plant):
Light: Happy in anything from bright, indirect light to low light. It’s not picky — just no harsh sun, please.
Water: Less is more. Water only when the soil is fully dry. ZZs hate soggy feet.
Temperature: Room temp is perfect. It’s not into cold drafts or dramatic climates.
Bonus Fact: Its underground rhizomes (fancy plant tubers) store water like little survival tanks — which is why it stays glossy even when you ghost it for weeks.
