ZZ Plant
Houseplant Size Guide
At Houseplant.co.uk, we want to ensure that you choose the perfect plant for your space. Here's how we measure our plants:
Plant Height:
Measured from the base of the nursery pot to the top of the plant, including the full length of the stem and foliage.
Pot Size:
Refers to the total width across the top of the pot.
Choosing the Right Size
To find the perfect fit, compare the diameter of your plant's grow pot to the opening diameter of your chosen decorative pot. Ensure the decorative pot is at least 1-3cm larger in diameter than the grow pot for easy insertion and removal.
Important Notes
- Plant sizes are approximate and include the depth of the plant pot and roots, not just the height from the top of the soil.
- If a specific plant size is not available, we may provide a larger plant at no additional cost to you.
- All of our plants, unless otherwise stated are supplied in a nursery pot with the exception of air plants or lucky bamboo or otherwise listed in the product description.

Learn More About ZZ Plant
Collapsible content
What is the ZZ Plant Known For?
The ZZ Plant is renowned for its stunning, waxy green leaves that flourish with minimal care, making it a favorite amongst both novice and expert gardeners. It’s highly appreciated for its ability to tolerate low light conditions and irregular watering, truly making it a standout in the realm of houseplants.
What Is the History of the ZZ Plant?
Zamioculcas Zamiifolia, the botanical name of the ZZ Plant, has its roots in the arid regions of Eastern Africa. It's a plant that has risen to prominence in home decor relatively recently, becoming widely recognized in the 1990s for its resilience and elegant foliage that complements modern living spaces.
Where Does the ZZ Plant Originate?
The ZZ Plant hails from Eastern Africa, where it thrives in drought-prone areas, a testament to its remarkable drought resistance. Its natural habitat has equipped it to store water within its rhizomes, enabling it to withstand long periods without moisture.
Are ZZ Plant Toxic to Pets?
While the ZZ Plant is an excellent choice for those looking for low-maintenance greenery, it's important to note that it is not safe for pets. All parts of the plant contain calcium oxalate crystals, which can be irritating if ingested by animals, so it’s best to keep it out of reach of curious pets.

My 4 houseplants arrived in one large box. They were all looking healthy with glossy leaves. The pots were beautiful and well wrapped in bubble wrap. Only quibble: I thought I had ordered a hanging basket with strings, but the pot that arrived had no strings...perhaps I ordered the wrong thing on the site.

I am very pleased with my first order. They were delivered quickly and were so healthy. I was a little surprised the plants were packaged in such a narrow tall box, but they were so well packed and prepared that no damage could have occurred. The plants are a little pricey compared to other retailers, but I have not seen such healthy plants anywhere I shop. I will definitely order from them again.
