The ZZ Plant is a highly durable, tropical perennial native to East Africa. It is characterized by its thick, upright, arching stems, which bear small, waxy, deep green, oval leaflets. It grows from thick, potato-like underground storage organs called rhizomes (sometimes called bulbs or tubers). These rhizomes allow the plant to store water, making it extremely drought-tolerant and one of the best choices for neglect and low-light environments. It rarely flowers indoors.
