Know before you buy
Yes, it is one of the most resilient houseplants for low-light environments. While it prefers bright, indirect light, it will remain healthy and continue to grow even in dim corners or offices with limited natural light.
The Raven ZZ is a drought-tolerant plant that prefers to dry out completely between waterings. Because it comes in a self-watering pot, you will need to water it much less frequently than standard houseplants, typically every few weeks.
No, this plant is toxic if ingested. It should be kept on a high shelf or in a location that is completely inaccessible to curious pets and small children.
The self-watering pot helps maintain consistent moisture levels in the soil, which reduces the risk of overwatering—the most common cause of issues with ZZ plants. It allows the plant to draw water as needed, making it an excellent choice for busy owners.
The Raven ZZ is unique because its new growth typically emerges as a bright lime green before maturing into a deep, glossy black-purple. This color transition provides a beautiful contrast within the plant as it grows.
