Strange but beautiful. A caudex-forming aroid from Kenya has 3in, shiny-green leaves arranged distichously along bottle-shaped stems, giving a cycad-like appearance. Easy to grow, good as a houseplant, bonsai, for shaded landscapes or terrariums.
An ancient relic, along with Gonatopus, with a unique characteristic (for Aroids) in that the leaflet can fall to the ground, root and form bulblets. This feature is not known in aroids outside of the Zamioculcadeae.
- Easy to grow house plant.
- Will grow in lower light areas.
- Proper name: Zamioculcas zamiifolia.
- Also makes an unusual indoor bonsai.
- Immediate shipping.
SOME OF THE CUSTOMER REVIEWS ABOUT THIS
FLOWER/PLANT [SAMPLE]
1) Hard to find prehistoric plant - I looked everywhere trying to find this plant. My Aunt has one but didn't know what it was called. I took pictures of it and took them to every plant place and nursery I could find. No one knew what it was. At last I was sent to a nursery that is ran by a master of plants. He knew what it was as well as that is was a prehistoric plant. I hope it lasts long enough to look like my Aunts whose is very big and beautiful
It is a very low maintaince plant which is just what I like.Thank you Amazon. Without you I may have never found it.

2) Magical Plant! - When it arrived in the huge shipping box I had no idea what to expect but after digging through the packaging I discovered the the plant was in very good shape. I am amazed at the habits of this plant. It is already growing beautifully after only one month in its new habitat. It is quite fascinating to observe and requires so little but offers great rewards.I love it-- it was worth every penny!
