The ZZ Plant is characterized by its waxy green leaves above the surface of its potting mix, and its large potato-like rhizomes underneath. These rhizomes store water, making the ZZ a hardy, drought-tolerant houseplant that only needs water every few weeks. 

  • Small plants arrive in a 5" wide nursery grow pot and measure between 9"-12" tall from the soil line to the top of the foliage
  • Medium plants arrive in an 8" wide nursery grow pot and measure between 14-20" tall from the soil line to the top of the foliage
  • Large plant arrive in a 10" wide nursery grow pot and measure between 16–24" tall from the soil line to the top of the foliage

Care Guide

ZZ Plant Zanzibar, Kenya, Eastern Africa
Plant Care
  • Thrives in medium to bright indirect light, but can tolerate low indirect light. Not suited for intense, direct sun.
  • Water every 2-3 weeks, allowing soil to dry out between waterings. Expect to water more often in brighter light and less often in lower light.
  • You might spot large potato-like rhizomes under the surface of the ZZ Plant's soil. These store water to help the plant survive drought in its native habitat.
