ZZ Plant 'Black Queen' Care Guide

Lighting Conditions

The ZZ Plant 'Black Queen' thrives in low to bright indirect light. While it can tolerate lower light levels, it grows best with access to moderate light. Avoid direct sunlight as it can scorch its leaves.

Watering Requirements

Water the plant when the soil is dry to the touch, typically once every 2-3 weeks. ZZ Plants are highly drought-tolerant, so overwatering should be avoided. Ensure that the pot has good drainage to prevent root rot.

Temperature and Humidity Needs

This plant prefers temperatures between 60°F and 75°F (16°C to 24°C). It does well in average indoor humidity levels but will benefit from occasional misting if your home is particularly dry.

Fertilizing and Growth

Feed your ZZ Plant with a balanced liquid fertilizer once a month during the growing season (spring and summer). Avoid fertilizing in the fall and winter when growth slows down.

Repotting and Maintenance

Repot your ZZ Plant every 2-3 years or when it becomes root-bound. Choose a well-draining pot, and trim any yellowing or damaged leaves to maintain its lush appearance.
