Fast premium delivery, hassle-free ordering, accepted PayPal (which is a bonus as I don't like spreading card details around unnecessarily), good email updates and tracking, and the item received was as described and effective for the purpose. 5 stars :)

Really wanted to write a review as I ordered before I checked the reviews so was very nervous about the 2.9 trustpilot rating! Two beautiful plants arrived on the day I was told they would arrive and they look healthy so I’m hopeful they will last but the experience was good for me so wanted to provide a positive review. I live in quite a remote area so am always a little nervous about larger deliveries (especially with yodel!) but it went great for me. My new babies are so far looking happy in their new home! Thanks Oxy-Plants!

Really good experience with the team at oxy plants. Very helpful throughout the process of purchasing the product, to picking it up. Plant was very healthy as were the rest inside the storage unit so you can tell there is pride in keeping the plants in great condition. A nice wide range of pots and other products to choose from as well. Definitely recommend 👍

I can recommend Oxy-Plants. I ordered a large aspidistra and it arrived the next day, well-packed and in excellent condition. It was also very reasonably priced compared to some other on-line plant shops. It looks lovely in its forever home. I will order more from Oxy-Plants in the future.

Package for the larger neem oil arrived in time & good condition . A touch pricier than other suppliers but trusted the company for genuine item . Does have a noticeable odour but in an open plan area not really bothered by it and certainly works on getting rid of bugs in my indoor plants . Thank you

How To Care For ZZ Plant

Only water when the soil has completely dried out. This plant can do without water for months (in the right spot). If you notice a weakened grey stem, yellowing leaves and dry, crispy patches on the leaf edges then the plant is under-watered or in a too spot that is too bright (if you are watering).

You can put this plant in almost any spot in the house. Just don’t place it in a cold, drafty spot or an area with too much direct sunlight.

Hailing from Africa, Zamioculcas is fine with low humidity. Just wipe the leaves with a damp cloth from time to time to remove any dust or potential pests and avoid over-misting – or for a simpler solution pop in the shower and rinse down.

This plant likes well-draining soil. You can add extra perlite, wood chippings or coco coir to the potting medium to allow for extra drainage.

You can use houseplant fertiliser at half strength or cactus feed once a month, but it shouldn’t need too much. You’re always better to underfeed rather than overfeed.

If using fertiliser is new to you, read our “How to Fertilise Your Houseplant” page!

Not prone to pests, but keep an eye out for the common house pests such as mealy bugs, scale, aphids, spider mites and fungus gnats. You can apply neem oil every 2 or 3 weeks too, for general house plant maintenance.

If you think your plant is suffering from a pest or disease, take a look at our Pests and Diseases page!

ZZ Plant is easy to propagate by means of division or by taking stem cuttings. Or, simply repot your ZZ plant into a bigger pot every other year.

Wondering how to repot your houseplant? Take a look at our repotting guide. It has all the information you’ll need!

About ZZ Plant

The ZZ Plant, also known as Zanzibar Gem, is a super easy-care plant. Its long, thick, stems stand tall and strong; with beautiful oval leaves set in deep green.

Originating from Eastern Africa the Zanzibar Gem evolved to survive extended periods of droughts followed by flash floods meaning it’s perfect for anyone who doesn’t want too much fuss when it comes to watering. This is the perfect gift for him and for her!

Zamioculcas are a great gift for any novice indoor gardener due it’s hardy, (almost) unkillable nature. We think this house plant is a particularly great gift for men. If you have a friend or family member who needs a plant for their office, home, or university room, why not treat them to a ZZ plant?

Read our full ZZ Plant Care Guide for those in need of a little guidance, but you really shouldn’t have to worry too much with this houseplant. For further reading, you could check out the RHS’s guide to caring for ZZ Plants here.

Top Care Tips for ZZ Plant

  • Don’t overwater your Zanzibar Gem
  • Keep out of direct sunlight
  • Allow the soil to dry between watering

Toxicity

All parts of the plant contain calcium oxalate crystals, which is mildy toxic to humans and pets.

Is this product not for you? Not to worry! Take a look at our (almost) Unkillable plants and our Best Large Houseplants pages.

Please note: this plant comes in a plastic nursery pot. Browse our entire range of plant pots to add that extra charm and character to your home.
