Know more about Zamioculca Zamiifolia Raven

Zamioculca Zamiifolia Raven was born in the summer of 2017. It is a succulent plant that has attractive dark glossy foliage due to its high concentration of chlorophyll. In fact, is one of the few plants that its leaves are almost black.

Given its waxy leaves that look artificial and the large rhizome that reminds us of a potato, zamioculcas can store water giving them the capacity to survive for long periods of time without water. This makes ZZ plant one of the best drought-tolerant plants on earth. In addition, having the ability to retain water, makes it a sensitive plant, as it is easy for its roots to rot.

Key tips for successful care

  • Water you Zamioculca throughly but let it dry between waterings.
  • Propagate it only when it's outgrowing its current home.
  • Wipe the leaves with a damp cloth and gently dry to keep them clean and healthy.
  • Don't place it in the sun.

Zamioculca Zamiifolia Raven care guide

Zamioculca Zamiifolia raven will get the best and healthiest growth in bright, indirect sunlight. It's well known for tolerating low light but take in account that it's growth will be slower.

Morning sun is fine, but keep it out of hot, direct sunlight which can scorch its leaves.

ZZ plant grow from thick, round tuberous rhizomes. These store water as do the thick, fleshy roots & somewhat spongy stems. Water your Zamioculca thoroughly but allow the top 2 inches (5 cm) of soil to dry out between waterings.

Soggy soil will cause the rhizomes to rot so pay attention either how much water you use and the type of soil you use.

Yellow foliage and soft stems are also a sign of too much water. Although ZZ plant will tolerate dry soil, it will likely drop its leaves if left too dry, too long.

Average house humidity is advised but increase humidity when using the articifial heating within the home.

Zamioculca Zamiifolia doesn't need much fertilizer, provide once a month a balanced liquid fertilizer which is diluted during the main growing season (April - August).
