ZZ Plant in 6"pot Live Houseplant Zamioculcas ZZPlant Raven Home Decor

ZZ plants are known for being able to grow in a range of lighting conditions from bright indirect light to low light, and the raven ZZ plant is no exception. That being said, its ideal growing conditions include plenty of bright, indirect light. While it can survive in low-light conditions you won’t notice much, if any, growth, and the growth that you do see will likely be leggy and unattractive. Make sure that you also avoid placing your ZZ plant in a location where it receives direct sunlight, particularly harsh afternoon sunlight, as it is susceptible to leaf burn.

Soil

A soil mix that is airy and well-draining is ideal. While raven ZZ plants can survive in standard houseplant soil, they will do best when potted in a soil mix that is amended with plenty of perlite, pumice, or sand to help increase drainage. 

Water

The raven ZZ plant has thick, water-storing rhizomes which means it is drought-tolerant and does not need to be watered frequently. In fact, overwatering this plant can lead to root rot which will quickly kill a ZZ plant. The best way to prevent overwatering is to allow the soil to dry out thoroughly between waterings. Keep in mind that during the spring and summer when the plant is actively growing it will need to be watered more frequently than in the fall or winter months when it is dormant. As a general rule of thumb, if you are unsure about whether it is time to water your ZZ plant, you are probably best to wait a little bit longer. It is better to underwater these succulents than to overwater them.

Temperature and Humidity

This tropical plant does well as a houseplant because it thrives in warm temperatures and average humidity levels. It also does well in humid conditions, although it doesn’t require them. Ensure temperatures stay between 65 to 85 degrees Fahrenheit (18 to 29 degrees Celsius) to avoid sending your plant into shock.
