The ZZ plant is a modern must, a real Instagrammer's plant. They’re a hardy specimen requiring little maintenance.
Its glossy green leaves reflect the light and brighten up any space. They have an unusually tall and elegant shape that bursts out into leaves - we can see why it's a must-have.
The ZZ Plant is a Succulent, meaning they retain water and don’t require a lot of watering.
Native to Africa, this plant is able to withstand drought and low light conditions. Making it a perfect low maintenance and beginner plant.
A common issue people have with the ZZ is over-watering, so don’t be tempted to overdo it.
