ZZ Plant

Add rich greenery to your interior with the ZZ Plant, also commonly called Zamiya. This attractive indoor plant features upright, fleshy stems covered with smooth, glossy, dark-green leaves. Its structured appearance complements modern homes, offices, reception areas, and commercial interiors.

The ZZ Plant stores water in its thick underground rhizomes, making it drought tolerant and easy to maintain. It adapts to different indoor light levels but develops best in bright, indirect light.
