The Zamioculcas Black NZ is a striking, sculptural houseplant known for its deep, glossy, near-black foliage and incredible toughness. This plant naturally develops it dark tomes as it matures, turning rich green shoots into dramatic midnight-coloured stems over time. With its architectural shape and elegant sheen, it brings a bold, contemporary feel to any indoor space.
Native to East Africa, this plant thrives on very little attention. It prefers bright, indirect light but will also tolerate lower-light corners, offices and rooms where other plants struggle. Additionally, it stores water in its thick rhizomes, which means it can handle occasional neglect and still look flawless.
Because of its slow-growing nature and deep moody colour, the Zamioculcas Black pairs beautifully with modern interiors, minimalist decor and stylish plant-led homes.
