Coontie: Your Low-Maintenance Tropical Accent

Bring a touch of ancient elegance to your garden with the Coontie (Zamia integrifolia), a native Florida cycad with a flair for the dramatic! This evergreen beauty boasts lush, feathery fronds and a compact, clumping growth habit, making it a standout choice for landscapes, containers, or even as a hardy houseplant.

Why You’ll Love the Coontie

  • Drought-Tolerant Dynamo: Thrives on neglect and laughs in the face of dry spells.
  • Perfectly Petite: Grows to a manageable 2–4 feet tall, ideal for small spaces or layering in mixed borders.
  • Wildlife Magnet: A host plant for the rare Atala butterfly—your garden will be buzzing with life!
  • Low-Maintenance Charm: No pruning or fussing required; just plant it and let it thrive.

Where It Shines

The Coontie thrives in sandy, well-drained soil and handles everything from full sun to partial shade. Use it to anchor a tropical landscape, line pathways, or as a sculptural centerpiece in containers. Indoors, it’s a conversation starter that thrives in bright, indirect light.

Planting Tips

Plant your Coontie in a spot with excellent drainage—wet feet are its kryptonite. Once established, it’s practically indestructible, requiring little more than occasional watering during prolonged dry spells. For indoor plants, a sandy potting mix works best, and remember to rotate the pot occasionally to ensure even growth.

The Coontie is more than a plant—it’s a piece of living history that’s ready to transform your space with its prehistoric charm. Grab one today and grow a legacy!
