ZZ Plant (Zamioculcas zamiifolia)

The ZZ Plant (Zamioculcas zamiifolia) stands as one of the most forgiving and low-maintenance houseplants perfect for beginners. Its glossy, dark green leaves grow from thick, water-storing rhizomes that make it remarkably drought-resistant. Thriving in both bright indirect light and low-light conditions, the ZZ plant can survive weeks without water while still maintaining its attractive appearance. This slow-growing tropical plant not only adds architectural beauty to any space but also helps purify indoor air. Its exceptional adaptability to neglect and varying environments makes it an ideal choice for first-time plant owners or those with busy schedules.
