Black Queen ZZ Plant: Growing Guide

Black Queen ZZ Plant (Zamioculcas zamiifolia ‘Black Queen’) is a striking, low-maintenance plant known for its glossy, dark green to nearly black leaves. Its bold, architectural look makes it a perfect addition to any modern space, adding elegance and drama with minimal care.

This slow-growing, easy-care plant thrives in a variety of conditions, making it ideal for homes, offices, and apartments. The Black Queen ZZ Plant’s ability to tolerate neglect makes it especially suited for those who may not have a green thumb.

Light

Black Queen ZZ Plant thrives in low to bright indirect light. While it can tolerate low light conditions, it will grow faster in brighter environments. Too much direct sunlight may cause the leaves to scorch.

Water

Water the Black Queen ZZ Plant when the soil has completely dried out. This plant is highly drought-tolerant and can go without water for extended periods. Be careful not to overwater, as it is susceptible to root rot. Ensure good drainage in the pot.

Growth & Maintenance

The Black Queen ZZ Plant is very low-maintenance. It requires minimal pruning, just removing any yellowing or damaged leaves. Regularly wipe the leaves to remove dust and maintain their glossy appearance.

This plant has an upright, architectural growth habit with thick, waxy leaves that have a unique dark hue, adding bold contrast to any space.

Propagation

Black Queen ZZ Plant is easy to propagate through leaf cuttings or rhizome division. Simply cut a healthy leaf or rhizome and allow it to dry before placing it in well-draining soil. High humidity helps with successful propagation.

Hardiness Zones

This plant thrives in warm indoor conditions and is best suited for USDA zones 9-11. It does not tolerate frost and should be kept indoors during colder months to prevent damage.

Safety

Black Queen ZZ Plant is toxic to pets and humans if ingested, as it contains calcium oxalate crystals. Keep it out of reach of children and animals to avoid potential harm.

Common Issues

Though the Black Queen ZZ Plant is hardy, it may still face some common problems:

Overwatering: This plant is prone to root rot if kept in damp soil. Ensure the soil dries out completely between waterings and use a well-draining mix.

Yellowing Leaves: This can indicate overwatering, poor drainage, or insufficient light. Adjust care accordingly.

Pests: While generally pest-resistant, occasionally aphids or mealybugs may appear. Treat them with insecticidal soap or remove manually.

This easy-care plant is ideal for those looking to add a bold statement to their indoor space with minimal effort.

30-Day Guarantee

I take great care in packaging and shipping each plant to ensure it arrives in the best possible condition.

However, I know that once it leaves my hands, things can happen—shipping mishandling, environmental stress, or just the natural adjustment of a living plant.

That’s why I offer a 100% risk-free, 30-day guarantee. If your plant arrives damaged, wilted, or doesn’t thrive within the first 30 days, I’ll send you a replacement—no questions asked.

How It Works:

1. Take a photo of the affected plant.

2. Send it to me via email or my contact form.

3. I’ll arrange a replacement and ship it to you as soon as possible.

4. Your new plant arrives within a few days, and your 30-day guarantee starts again!

I’m fully committed to making sure you love your plants.

Thank you for your trust and support!
