A ZZ can be E-Z 😉 some more care tips ⬇️ This is a raven ZZ! It grows green, then changes colors to black. Forget you have it! If you want strong and thick stems, light will be your best friend for her! Give her 8-12 hours under a grow light or keep up close to a window ( at least 300 fc if measuring with a light meter) Soil mix used: indoor potting soil, orchid bark, perlite If you have soft and mushy rhizomes or soft stems, that’s a sign that you are watering too often and have rot. If you found this helpful, consider following along for more planty tips and leave any questions down below!

hi crystal! I have a big zz and I’m not sure if it’s too big for its pot!!! I think it is, because the new growths have been way smaller than normal. I could send you a pic via Pinterest and sort this out with you maybe???

Oh my, I repotted mine in very gravelly cactus soil. It doesn’t seem very happy. Could this be why? I didn’t know it needed regular potting soil 😢 Would repotting (it was several months since I first did it) in indoor soil, the cactus soil and perlite help? It just stopped growing after I repotted it and the pot is not much larger than the one it came in.
