Zamioculcas - EW-16020

Zamioculcas zamilifolia, native to East Africa, is an exceptional plant from the Araceae family, with sturdy stems and leathery leaves. Adaptable to various environmental conditions, even in low-light environments, it is the perfect choice for anyone, including those with less green thumbs!

Easy to care for, it resists beginner mistakes. In spring and summer, fertilize lightly for an energy boost during watering. However, remember that it is toxic if ingested, containing oxalic acid and calcium oxalate. Take precautions with pets and children.

This plant also has healing properties, with the juice traditionally used in Tanzania to treat various conditions, becoming a sort of "green helleborine."

Thanks to its succulent leaves, it can survive for a long time without frequent watering; Watering is only necessary when the soil is completely dry. Avoid overwatering, as it can cause the rhizome to deteriorate. During the winter, limit watering to about once a month, depending on the indoor temperature.
