zz plant: basically impossible to mess up (unless you water too much).

zz plant is one of the easiest houseplants you can have.
low light? fine.
busy life? perfect.

the only real mistake people make: watering too soon.

always wait until the soil is completely dry — not just the top.
use the finger test, or a wooden stick or pencil to check all the way down.
even in summer, it usually won’t need water more often than every 2-3 weeks.
if it’s in a terracotta pot by a sunny window, it might dry a bit faster — but always check first.

yellow leaves? that means you probably watered before it was fully dry. easy fix: just wait longer next time.

zz is part of our zero effort bundle — together with snake plant and peperomia.
all super easy. all made for people who don’t want to overthink plants.
