Zanzibar Gem – Zamioculcas Zamiifolia is a hardy, glossy-leaved houseplant prized fir its toughness and architectural beauty. It features upright stems lined with thick, waxy, deep-green leaflats that reflect light and give the plant a naturally polished look. This gem tolerates low light, irregular watering, and typical indoor conditions with ease.
Zanzibar Gem is slow growing, but long lived and incredibly hardy. Hates the cold and especially hates cold and wet. Keep it warm and dry in winter. Copes well with periods of neglect because it stores water in its underground rhizomes.
The ZZ plant will do best in a bright to medium light position but can also tolerate lower light conditions.
Water this plant sparingly! Allow the potting mix to almost completely dry out between waterings. To monitor this, you can use your finger to poke into the top 5 cm of potting mix and feel the soil moisture level. If it feels wet, let it dry out for longer. Over watering can lead to fungal issues or root rot. During winter, when the plant isn’t in an active growing phase you should reduce watering frequency.
As with all plants, drainage is essential. Ensure that whatever vessel your plant is in, there are sufficient holes in the bottom to allow excess water to freely drain from the pot and away from the plant’s roots.
Not fussed.
Feed with liquid fertiliser fortnightly over the warm, growing period and not at all over the cooler winter months.
We recommend using our Plant Food available here.
Once a month you can wipe down the plants leaves using a damp cloth to clean away any dust that has collected and may be preventing the leaves from breathing. It’s completely normal for older leaves, typically around the base of the plant, to fade in colour or brown off as they age. You can prune off any damaged or dying leaves using a sharp pair of scissors or secateurs so that the plant can put more energy into the newer, healthier growth.
N.b. this plant is toxic if ingested for both humans and animals so keep it away from kids or your furry friends!
