The Unbeatable ZZ Plant | Newark News

The ZZ plant is the ultimate houseplant superhero—tough, forgiving, and practically indestructible. Hailing from Eastern Africa, it’s a low-light, drought-tolerant wonder that thrives with minimal care. With varieties like the Raven (deep black leaves) and Chameleon (golden new growth), it’s as stylish as it is easy to grow. Forget frequent watering or repotting—these slow growers store water in their rhizomes and barely need attention. Just watch out for overwatering (the 1 killer) and pests. And while they look like palms, they’re actually aroid cousins of Pothos and Philodendrons—with even tiny flowers when happy. Perfect for black-thumb owners and busy folks alike.
