The Zanzibar Gem (Zamioculcas zamiifolia) is a popular ornamental plant known for its glossy, dark green, waxy leaves and striking appearance. Often referred to as the “ZZ plant,” it is highly valued for its low-maintenance nature and ability to thrive in low light and with minimal water. Its thick, sturdy stems store water, making it drought-tolerant and ideal for indoor spaces. The Zanzibar Gem is a resilient and attractive choice for both beginners and experienced plant enthusiasts.
