Wipe the glossy leaves of your Zamioculcas regularly with a damp cloth to remove dust and enhance its natural shine. To encourage even growth, rotate the pot every few weeks so all sides receive equal light exposure. If you notice leggy growth or yellowing leaves, assess the lighting and watering conditions to maintain this plant’s hardy and attractive appearance.

Zamioculcas is highly drought-tolerant and requires infrequent watering. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings, then water thoroughly, letting excess moisture drain away. Avoid overwatering, as the rhizomes can rot in soggy conditions. In winter, reduce watering to once every few weeks, as the plant’s growth slows. Always ensure the plant is not left sitting in standing water.

To plant Zamioculcas, select a pot with drainage holes and fill it with a well-draining potting mix, such as one designed for succulents or cacti. Position the plant so its rhizomes are just below the soil surface, ensuring it is not buried too deeply. Place the pot in a bright spot with indirect light or partial shade, as the plant can tolerate low light but thrives with moderate lighting. Re-pot only when the roots outgrow the container, as Zamioculcas prefers being slightly root-bound.
