Hi Swedish Plant Guy! ;-) This was very helpful! I have 7 ZZ plants, 3 Raven and 4 regular green, and I LOVE them! They are one of my favorite plants! You do a phenomenal job of explaining everything without all the "fluff", and I really appreciate that. Thank you so much for sharing this detailed information!

I can’t believe that I have watched the full video from start to finish. Now I have quite of knowledge regarding ZZ Plant. I just have brought this plant to home, and will start taking care of it with this amazing tips. 😊

[@HollyAbruzzese]

Thank you for this video!! I was gifted a ZZ plant and had taken it to the office knowing my new cat would try to eat it and get sick. Everyone just loves this plant, I was hoping to be able to propagate this easily, I’m thankful for all of your information to care for it as I am asked questions about it daily!

[@introspectiveseeker]

The most informative video I saw on ZZ plant ❤

[@hennesseyme9112]

I have had a zz Raven about two years now and I only see it grow in the summer when I put it outside. I purchased my first ZZ plant from Etsy and I am thrilled. It was so root bound, I thought I would have to cut the pot. It was so bound I was afraid to seperate it so I loosened the soil, and gave it a nice fresh, nutritious bed of media to live in for a long time.

[@soulsistag66]

Me googling how to say: Tack! I appreciate the 50 tips and I learned a lot. Your presentation effortless. Tack, tack!

[@evelinee.2680]

Thanks for all these interesting tips! You always explain it very well!! 👍

I plead guilty to breaking rule 15. About a month ago I got a little one in a 4 inch pot that was absolutely bulging in it's plastic pot, it was like the hulk. I gave it a week to acclimate to it's new home and then cut it out. I divided into 4! making sure that each part got some roots and rhizome. It's a few weeks later and they are all doing fine and growing. One of them due to my transplant had a stem almost horizontal, out of interest I put it under some lights and was surprised at how sharply the stem bent up to the light, only took a week. Thank you so much for such a comprehensive review. I knew they didn't need much water, but learned from you they need even less than I thought! Only question I have is though you talked about watering frequency, how thoroughly should I water? Since most of my plants are near electricity I take them down from their shelves and put them in big pans and totally soak them, allowing them to sit in water for 20 minutes. I'm guessing this would be too much for them? Thanks!

[@staceyrose5821]

I don't even have a ZZ plant and I'm STILL watching!! Makes me want to get one especially now that I've attended this master class!! Thank you!!

[@desertflower9557]

I bought that ZZ plant for my daughter and after listening to him explain how they like to be compacted and tight fitting in its pot, we decided to leave it alone. It is receiving indirect Southern light from a downstairs bathroom. I had her set a watering schedule and yesterday when I visited it has grown shoots and new leaves are emerging. It no longer appears as if the rhizomes are pushing the plant out of its pot. Her Jade plant that I propagated for her is growing well this time also. It’s nice to have a low maintenance plant or two.

[@juneharris5417]

What are the benefits of ZZ plant and is it safe to kept indoor ?thx

[@JohnandNancyTselepis]

Wow ! What an interesting video,full of new info. Just found this. Thks. Our ZZ plant will thrive now. 🌈

[@doreenkorman8347]

Thank you so MUCH...what a great presentation. Informative & useful information!! I've been pretty lucky with my last ZZ...my biggest mistake was transferring my first one into a larger pot!!! It is VERY sparse, BUT, still alive!!!😅 I'm going to "try" to repot in a smaller pot and give it another chance 😁

[@MoitrayeesCraftyCastle]

Thank you so much for this lovely detailed informative video. Today I came to know so many unknown facts about the ZZ plant.👍🏻👏🏻

[@puggyflowerchild6263]

This is so good! I bought a ZZ on a whim, great price. Looks like I did a good job picking it out. This video will hopefully keep on track caring for it. Thanks for the great info!

[@valeriemalliris4918]

Another fantastic video. So appreciate all the technical information and not fluff!

[@charmaineprice8551]

This was some excellent information!. The tips given are very simple yet practical regarding the care of the plant. This is the only plant in my house as it doesn't require much care and it suits my busy lifestyle. Awesome presentation!!

[@stephenwilling7287]

I love my ZZs, I have a regular and a Raven. The Reg I saw in a stare and liked it right away. But I actually got one after I found a video you made about careing for them. Since then I managed to get two new plants from leaves, following your instructions. It took about 7-months but now they both have grown new stems and are 6-8 inches tall, so far. The Raven I got 5-6 months ago, on the way home a stem got damaged so I tried to get some of the leaves to grow, they rotted and died. The original pot they were in split and I had to re-pot, while doing so I found two small tubers, only one had a stem, in amungst some of the soil that came off . I potted them separately. There are now new stems just showing above the soil. Like I said I love these ZZs and I love your videos just as much. Thank you.

[@zhyzhamanky7422]

Thank you very much.I have this plant. It is big and beautiful,but I every time worry about to do something wrong for the plant. You helped me.

[@hilarysvariety5839]

Very comprehensive!! 🎉 I saw a ZZ plant with black marks on the stem and thought something wrong with it. LOL 🤣

[@amyle4049]

very informative! thanks. looking forward to hearing more on other plants

[@lynx2cross]

#1 key to be successful with this plant is to always remember, Just because the soil is dry doesn’t mean the plant is thirsty. They store water in their stems and the bulb that is beneath the soil. When the leaves start to look pale and if the stems start to droop a bit, that indicates the plant is need of water. You could easily kill this plant by overwatering before you know it the stems will rot and it will continue like that unless you move quickly and remove it from the soil and save the stems that haven’t started to rot and put them in dry soil for at least 2 weeks before watering.

[@mehranashkanian2747]

Love the concise, quick and to the point presentation.

[@heatherderganc5984]

This is so helpful! I have many ZZ plants because my lighting is not optimal for plants needing more light. I have been wondering why a couple have long stems and wondering what to do. Thankfully I know now that it’s normal and will try to propagate more plants with your awesome instructions. Thank you!!!

[@SparkleInMoonlight]

Thank you for the detailed video 🙂I have ZZ Zenzi and had a lot of spidermites on it at once - he got it from his neighbour. Later on my ZZ got thrips from another plant. However, I treated him regularly and he hasn´t lost a single leaf, and only got small cosmetic damage on some leaves. Very hardy and pretty plant indeed 🙂

[@debbielummus4637]

Thank you so much for this extremely informative and entertaining video!!! I have actually seen these vertical lines on my stems and thought. "Oh good. I am not overwatering!" Eek. Lesson learned. Thank you so much💚Happy holidays to you and your family🎄🥰

This is the best info for my new ZZ plant purchased 5/13/23. As of 5/26/23, I have 4 shoots growing beautifully. Sooo excited. I'll also be viewing the Sansaveria guide. I have 3 in 4inch nursery pots. Thank you for all you do

[@ypeace8820]

I just got a ZZ plant. I love learning from you! thank you❤

[@YarnKilla54]

I learned today AFTER repotting zz is actually an AROID 😮 Good thing I used homemade aroid mix... I did use a pot pot, several sizes larger but I used styrofoam in the bottom which I do frequently when I size up like that. Would love to do straight pumice but you can't find it anywhere in bulk amounts for a good price :(

[@123saycheese]

Awesome video. Thank you! I learned so much about this plant I have at home, and it is growing super wide out of control. I didn’t know that I can actually move it outside, I am definitely going to do that

[@nuchi1000]

Thank you so much for this video, i leant a lot and finally it put away the stress i had because i haven't seen any new growth for almost a year now and i thought i did something wrong. i live in Greece as it concerns the climate and we have a looooot of hot days during summer and generally most of the year :/ a small proposal here... if you could make a video like this about sansevieria. Thank you in advance and happy festive holidays, Evelyn :)

In Austria it's called "glücksfeder" - lucky feather.. I don't know who classified this plant as an "easy" one.. 7 cut stems without leaves, one lucky stem with leaves still... She might come back, hopefully your tips will touch this issue 🍀

[@DanaMiSa74]

My humble opinion and experience says that you need to water it thoroughly. Most of us make the same mistake when we hear that zz doesn't need much water. So, yes: it doesn't have to be watered like other plants (for example, every week or two weekes) but instead monthly or even 1,5 months but it has to be thoroughly then! I think this mistake killed all my new shoots on two zz. They had even 7-8 but every one of them died slowly, drying out from tips. Plus, we had very dry summer. Now, I'm trying this approach with less but thorough watering as I think this mimics the natural conditions in which this plant lives.

[@letXeqX]

Thanks, this exactly answered the question I asked earlier. I generally water my plants less often but thoroughly by putting them in a big pan, watering from the top and letting them sit in the runoff for 15 minutes. From the description in the video I wondered whether that would be too much for the zz's, but sounds from your comments it will be ok. And to only have to water them every 1-1.5 months is ideal.

[@DanaMiSa74]

@@letXeqX I hope I'm right, still trying out what is best but somehow I feel this is the right way. Good luck with your plant :)

Thank you again for the super detailed video! Like you said: all that I needed to know about the ZZ!❤ I had a question: is the tuber just a container of food or can I expect leaves from a bare tuber?

[@annettenoga6182]

Great video and informative. Just bought a smaller one, got it home and found it to be too wet, bulging in the pot . I've taken it out and placed newspaper around it to dry it somewhat and noticed the plant is rootbound. Normally, I would not repot it so soon, but should I repot given the above information. Please advise.

[@saranova318]

Thanks for these helpful tips! I have one question: how deep can or should i pot the stems in the soil apart from the tuber that should be completly in the soil?

[@desertflower9557]

I just purchased a ZZ plant and it’s packed inside a pot . It has some type of substrate that resembles bark just barely sitting on top of it because it’s about to come out of the top of the pot. The rhizomes are quite fat all of them. So, should I I still leave it I that pot. Is it in danger of dying since we can see the bulbs so well?

[@ragas0415]

Great video! Fair play to you guys! Perhaps sometime you could do similar video on Sansevieria?

[@inesb.6998]

My ZZ Plant has this cavitys which you discribe in your Video. Are they permanent or is there any chance for them to disappear if the plant got more water? I'm afraid that I will overly water my plant in expectation for the cavity to disappear and thereby accidentally drown my plant. So my question is: Will the stems look like before without cavities, if they are watered appropriately? Thank you ;)

[@JenniferPartridge-f8w]

I thank you, my ZZ thanks you!

Thank you, I’ve wanted mine in its own pot that plant itself invasion to other plants in another pot.
