BENEFITS:

ZZ plant also is an air purifier and in a NASA study, researchers found it is specifically adept at removing copious amounts of toxins such as xylene, toluene, and benzene from the air.

Improves Cognitive Function - Cognitive function includes multiple abilities of human brain functions such as learning, thinking, reasoning, attention, problem-solving, and decision making. Having a houseplant at home, especially a plant-like ZZ plant that improves air quality is known to enhance cognitive function.

ZZ plant tolerates neglect, is drought tolerant, and accepts low-light conditions without throwing a fit. It Requires Less Watering. Watering too frequently or allowing the ZZ plant to sit in water will lead to root rot and untimely death.

Situate your ZZ in low to bright indirect light, and water when fully dry. Typically you can even forget a watering…or three…and it will still thrive. ZZ is also very resistant to diseases and insects. If your plant’s branches intrude into your space and get in the way, simply prune them away.

Great Fengshui Option - ZZ plant is an excellent feng shui plant to grow indoors. When placed in the right spot like Southeastern, Southern, and Eastern corners of homes, it helps in bringing protective and purifying energy to your house.

ZZ plant follows Crassulacean Acid Metabolism; it can consume CO2 even when the sun is down thanks to the capability to perform a particular type of photosynthesis. This attribute makes them perfect for bedrooms!

FACTS:

If ideal growing conditions are met, this plant can send up a new shoot rather fast. Indeed, it can grow up to 1 cm/day, or an inch in three days.

New shoots are a surprising bright green! They will darken to a violet purple black as time passes.

However, most of the time it seems to stay dormant, either because conditions aren’t optimal or because temperatures have dropped and slowed growth. For instance, during the winter season, new leaves are rare.
