ZZ Plant

* The plant photos shown are our stock images used to represent the general appearance, size, and quality of the plant you’ll receive. Please remember that each plant is unique—natural variations in color, shape, and size are completely normal!

 Light

• Medium to bright indirect light is ideal, but it’s super tolerant of low light too.

• It can even handle fluorescent lighting, so it’s perfect for offices or dim corners.

• Avoid harsh direct sunlight, especially through glass — it can scorch those shiny leaves.

 Watering

• The ZZ’s golden rule: less is more!

  • Water when the top 2 inches of soil feel dry (every 2–3 weeks is typical).

  • Always let excess water drain out — soggy soil leads to root rot fast.

• In winter, stretch out the watering even more.

(If you’re unsure, it’s safer to underwater than overwater!)

 Temperature & Humidity

• Loves average indoor temps — 65–85°F (18–29°C).

• Normal household humidity is just fine; no misting needed.

• Keep it away from cold drafts, heaters, or AC vents.

 Feeding

• ZZs don’t need much food!

  • Feed with a balanced houseplant fertilizer (half strength) once a month in spring and summer.

  • No fertilizer needed in fall or winter.

 Soil & Repotting

• Use a well-draining mix — cactus or succulent soil works great.

• Repot every 2–3 years, or when the rhizomes start bulging against the pot.

• Choose a pot with good drainage holes.
