This is our favorite plant to ignore when it comes to a watering schedule. Check on your plant once a month to see if it needs care.

Common issues

Why is my ZZ plant falling over?

Since the ZZ grows tall, the stems can become heavy and begin to fan out. It's best to pot the bulbs, yes bulbs!, further down into the soil. Once the plant gets large it is sometimes necessary to bound the base of the plant with twine to keep the plant from fanning out.
